Hero (UTG): 126.69 BB
MP: 100 BB (VPIP: 33.33, PFR: 33.33, 3Bet Preflop: -, Hands: 3)
CO: 38.76 BB (VPIP: 27.27, PFR: 18.18, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 11)
SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB
Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has Kh Ac
Hero raises to 2.16 BB, MP raises to 7.7 BB, fold, fold, fold, fold, Hero calls 5.54 BB
Flop : (16.9 BB, 2 players) 6d 7c Qs
Hero checks, MP checks
Turn : (16.9 BB, 2 players) As
Hero checks, MP bets 11 BB, Hero calls 11 BB
River : (38.9 BB, 2 players) 5s
Hero bets 14.5 BB, MP calls 14.5 BB
Would you bet river here?
My reasoning is that I will call a bet up to 2/3 pot or so so with betting out I set a price that is less in return I give up some bluff catching potential.

any flushed river is not good for your range, because you leading FD on the turn pretty often. That being said I don't like reason behind river donkbet. Check/decide should be standard line there
Is there a reason you are not 4B this hand preflop?
As played, once you decide to take a passive line (call pre and cc turn) then i think betting the river is a mistake. What bluffs do you take this line with?
I think pre is fine, MP 3bet range is soooo narrow and unbalanced, atleast in 50 NL in my experience. i would prefer to Check river for balance and to protect that range, then you can not only bluff catch but he should value bet worse as well
Mad_dog makes a lot of sense. This is good advise.
The problem with betting river here that you are representing no bluffs. So probably you are not getting enough calls from worse hands. If I were him I think it's ok to fold AJs and call/raise 2 pairs+. If he is cappable to find bluff raise onr, it's gonna be even more disaster for our line
Im just NL10/NL25 player but i like the lead on the river. The hand is played very passively so he may have a lot of Ax when betting turn, as long with air and FD. On the river when we check he may:
- check with worse Ax, maybe check 2 pairs but doubt it (we lose some value)
- bet with flushes, air and maybe 2 pairs/set
Generally it will be hard to call river facing decent size bet, thats why it seems that blocking bet from our side should do the job. We may get called by worse (Ax hands) and a lot of hands will have to just call us (like small flushes), so it will help us to go to showdown quite cheap.
As far as it concerns bluffs in our range when leading river, im wondering if we have to have any here?
