    Default Is there a bet on the river? QQ

    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Hero ($56.50)
    UTG ($100.60)
    UTG+1 ($26.35)
    MP1 ($7.75)
    MP2 ($9.50)
    MP3 ($10)
    CO ($10.70)
    Button ($54.35)
    SB ($37.95)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with Q, Q.
    UTG raises to $2, 6 folds, SB calls $1.75, Hero raises to $5.75, UTG calls $4, SB calls $4.

    Flop: ($18) K, A, 8 (3 players)
    SB checks, Hero checks, UTG checks.

    Turn: ($18) 6 (3 players)
    SB checks, Hero checks, UTG checks.

    River: ($18) 4 (3 players)
    SB checks, Hero ??

    Is it worth a bet here or should I just try check it down?

    I think I check behind here. I think many hands that UTG beats you with call to see where they are. E.g. AJ would raise UTG and may call your reraise. They are not liking the board after your 3bet, but would be quite silly to fold to a reasonable river bet after 2 streets of checking.

    I expect UTG has a hand that beats you around 70% here
    This is not my signature. I just write this at the bottom of every post.

    I'm putting a $10 value bet in here, but it's marginal.

    raise a little more preflop. i usually go 3x the initial raise and add some more on for a caller after that.

    Good point, I didn't notice that. Make it $8 pre-flop.
