Hero bets $0.66, UTG calls $0.66

River: ($2.36) 8♦ (2 players)
Hero bets $0.91 all in, UTG calls $0.55 all in

I think I played this hand mostly alright. The river completes the diamond flush, so does that mean I should check/call instead of betting?

Is TPTK strong enough to bet for three streets of value, assuming board isn't too wet?

No stats on villain.

You do not have TP on the first street here... :)

Yeh my mistake. On the first street I have trash, so I cbet with the intention of giving up unless I improve. On the turn I pick up TPTK, so I bet for value on turn and river since I now have a made hand.

With the stack left there is nothing much you can do on river.

So the question is, why would you c/c on the river, when a fluhs completes, and this guy calls you down. He checks his weak hands behind, and bets only flushes and sets. In his l/c range he has mostly pockets and sc.

On the flop i would just bet , if i have the A♦:. Then you can shove every :diamond:

So when he calls the flop he can have Qxs and then suited hands with :diamond: or 46s or 69s. On the Turn you have to bet bigger, so you have an easy decison on the river. But with a complete flush and straight i c/f the river for half of my stack.

On the river villain has left $0, 55 this is the efective stack and you cannot fold.

Looks good. Maybe bet a bit bigger OTT. OTR you can bet yourself or c/c. I believe villain will bet OTR with missed spade draw or weaker Kx/Qx often enough. Folding is not an option.

Oh sorry, misread the stacksize. So bet the river.

I don't like cbet this flop. You're never getting a better hand to fold.

As played, I'd just shove the turn with the stack sizes. You played it fine though, you need to bet this river if you don't shove the turn. He checks behind worse too often and you have to call any bet.

I would bet river here for sure if you didn't shove turn, yes the flush completed but he isn't going to have it most times.
