4 tabling NL25, no real read on villain, so assuming typical Stars weak tight nit. My image is a bit on the loose side I would imagine, showing down some funny hands now and again.
PokerStars Game #4761459689: Hold'em No Limit ($0.10/$0.25) - 2006/04/27 - 17:08:48 (ET)

In retrospect, betting more on the flop may have been prudent against 3 opponents since the board is pretty coordinated.
Thoughts so far?
*** TURN ***  Pot: 7ish
HurricaneHam: bets $3.50
Poker_GFB: calls $3.50
*** RIVER ***  Pot: 13.50
Potential flush gets there, I 1/2 pot to keep control of the betting, probably folding if raised. Another call. Hmm.
*** RIVER ***
HurricaneHam: checks
Poker_GFB: bets $20
HurricaneHam: folds
Poker_GFB collected $13.65 from pot
Poker_GFB: doesn't show hand
Yes, checking the river is totally gross, I realize this. That being said...wtf? Outside of KJ, I really couldn't see any logical hand I was beating. Overbet was incredibly strange, something I rarely see at these stakes. However, fancy play syndrome runs rampant at these tables, so an overbet to me doesn't signal a bluff. I really couldn't figure this one out. Thoughts?

Personally I probably pot the flop and blockbet the river.
As for turn, it is pretty opponent&table feel dependant, but a turnbet about the same size as the flopbet can be a sign of weakness and open for being bluffed.
