A river decision at .10-.25

A bit of info, been generally being quiet although have been raising a bit from the button and get the sense that the villan in BB is getting a bit of tired of me doing that.
Villian has seemed pretty solid, not gotten out of line anyway.

im not too keen of your flop bet why bet so small on a draw heavy board either make it bigger or just check re-evaluate the turn the 1 dollar doesn't gain you any information

what is the villain like does he like to bet his draws or does he just check call?

i tend to be curious here and just call to see what he has got as id say you could win the cash off him at a later time even if you lose

maybe 45s?

good chance you're beat, but u never know at that level
probably should bet a little more on the flop.

It's not meant to

I normally bet between 50-75% of the pot, if he calls for a draw then he still is getting incorrect odds.

He check raised me once and other times folded to flop bet so haven't gotten to river with him at all

Actually he often isn't. I would bet more on flop, more on turn and probably call river.

Are you taking implied odds into account or just saying his actual pot odds are good to call?

If he has a flush draw on flop he's getting odds with your small bet.

lazlo

fold

I thought about and just felt like he could be bluffing a decent amount of the time with a busted flush so made the call

VILLIAN bets $6
Hero has 15 seconds left to act
Hero calls $6
mackee_1977 is sitting out
*** SHOW DOWN ***
VILLIAN shows [Qd 4d] (Queen Ten high)
Hero shows [9h Th] (two pair, Tens and Nines)
Hero wins the pot ($20.05) with two pair, Tens and Nines

I still not sure whether it was good call or not but bleh I won, can't beat a bit of results based thinking!
