    Default Low set with 3 to flush on board and 2 callers (out of position)

    Do you play this turn or river any differently?
    If you check the river, how much can you call?

    I checked the river hoping to induce a small bet from one of the other players but at the same time I was happy to show down for free. Your thoughts?

    I don't mind it. Turn seems fine imo, you need to find out where you are pretty fast.

    On the river, I like a blocking bet of 300 or so, I reckon there's quite a few hands you beat that will call here (at this level). The check is ok though.
    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.

    pf play = good
    flop play = good
    turn play = good
    river play = make a small value bet of 250ish
