HOW MUCH TO BET ON RIVER

I LIKE 240 more

empir2000 said that he must think im bluffing to get a call so i might as well bet big regardless. i said i need to bet less then half the pot because he wont know what to think of it

and im crazy

500

I'd bet 400

Hrmmm.. how much to bet.

I am but a 50nl newbie but here's how I see it. Assuming you have a tight image.

His most likely holdings are
1) a flush, which he just made, but he knows the board paired, so while he'll pay you, he probably won't let you stack him.
2) Weak King say, KJ. He is not very afraid of you having the flush. Nor will he be especially worried about you having a monster betting into a flush because he just checked. So I think he pays you well, but will most likely fold to a huge bet fearing AK.
3)QJ, not paying you at all, so we'll ignore it.

I think you probably get paid $450. So I'd bet that unless you think that he'd be willing to go broke on a flush draw, or unless you have a bit of a crazy bluffy image. In which case I push.

i still believe that 240 is the opimitmal bet with this monster. i bet 370 and he folded
