    definitely value bet here. 1/3 pot so he is correct to call with AJ.

    Hmm. Tricky spot. A read would be very helpful here. If I have seen villian call down people's bets before then I'm more tempted to bet this river. If he's tricky he could definitely have the flush here, but since it's six max I'd be more tempted to bet. I like betting about $12-15 and folding to a raise. At a full table I probably check behind.

    bet, its only 2 to the flop and theres a range of hands much wider than a flush draw.

    i dunno... very tricky... i'd be very suprised he called a big bet of ten dollars with...

    i'd just check just to see what he's been calling you down with for your own future reference...

    this will tell you who the fish and sucker is at the table to make you more money on the long run...

    Is seeing his hole cards worth $7?
