Checking with intention to do what? I don't like checking here, there are still quite some worse hands that call us. You can't see nuts all the time on such a board, cause it rarely is. Any info on the villain, stats/notes?

no didn't have anything on him. i didnt think about QT that and jx calling another bet. I was just thinking about how AQ beats us KQ we split and JQ beats us that was my thought process...

Hi Dr,

Any stats on BU? Like VPIP/PFR even on a small sample ?

Against a regular I think I would still bet here. It's true that 9 connected the board, but he could still have QT, AJ, KJ -type of hands that call, as well as some own pocket pairs (though they might fold here). We don't want to check/call either readless so I see that betting > check/folding > Check/calling.

Hello,

Against unknown I would prefer to bet here again - we have a decent top pair and a gutshot so without any information I would agree with the other guys - bet>check/fold>check/call.

Best,
Plamen
