It's a hard one.  I think personally I would check to call, as the other persons play looks like a missed flush draw, unless he's slow playing a monster.  If it's a missed draw he will just fold to a bet, were if he has a monster, he will come over the top all in, either way, I would say check to call is the better long term option, you'll get some value from river bluffs.

only better is calling, worse is folding

Only getting called by better here tbh i would consider check folding the river here on the basis that if he is chasing the flush he could easily hold the ace. Pre flop action could have a low suited ace e.g A6 lol
Could have 7's or 8's or a lower set aswell. I think your check call losing alot more here than check call winning so i would check to fold.
Bet bigger on turn aswell here if you think your ahead

This is a tricky one and highlights the perils of playing out of position with what is marginal holding by the river. Betting is a definite no no, you just folding out worse hands, getting called by every thing that beats you and reraised by air and monsters in equal measure. Whether you check to call a bet or fold bepends on your read on the villain - will they chase and bluff a missed draw?. But generally even a conservative button calling range is ahead here (TT,66,22,33,Ah2h+,Jh9h+,AQo+). LAGgier holdings such as A6s/76s got you in a world of pain - so I'd be checking to fold IMHO.

How about c/r river as a bluff )

raise more pre, bet more on flop and turn, shove river....you need to look at his stack size in relation to the pot as you start the hand and be looking to setup river shoves

@rancid: Because this is micro's and that micronit JJ gonna call your c/r!!

Agree with the other posts about bet sizing, you made it too seductive for missed draws to get to the river and bluff in position.

This is strange because I'd have thought inflating the pot massively with a marginal hand hand isn't good but you think that's the best approach ?

rancid

i think your sizing is fine with the hand you have

raise more pre , why?? he's made it 3.5x

bet more on flop , yep fine

bet more on turn , again fine

shove river , yep as his stack is prob nearly all inz anyway
