calls, raises? The bet is really small, I imagine if I raise I'll get value out of alot of As, however FH is possible. from his flop play an A is very likely imo.
reads: can't remember, sorry!

This looks like a missed flush draw to me, so we are probably not going to get much value if we raise. Therefore, I think a miniraise amountish will extract the most value.

I don't understand this... if it's a missed flush draw he won't call even a minraise, so any raise at all cannot be profitable. Unless I have a real good read I don't like raising here. There are few hands we beat that would call a raise. If villain had checked, I'd have checked behind.

True, but if he has a lone A, I don't understand why he let the flush draw for free. I'd have led both flop and turn with a A, unless I happened to have A8 (or AT on the turn).

i know, and it's clearly the correct play. However, alot of fishies see the 3 aces and are so afraid of not extracting enough from them that they slow play.

I'm not clear on this... if you think you have the best hand and it's good enough for a raise, why fold if he pushes? If you're not sure, why not just call?

I raise to $8 on river for value and fold to a push, but I def. call a donkish RR.

Without reads I'm not sure that we can assume that he raises PF with many of them - except AQ & AJ + a couple that beat us.
His River bet is weird but he could easily have a monster and thinks that you have pretty much nothing. IMO it's marginal between calling & raising but I probably call unless I have reason to believe that his weak River bet means weak hand.

Hands that we beat will call a raise to about 7.5 (any ace and sometimes even just a king). But if they push they are saying they've got a full house (sometimes just a good Ace and kicker) but a full house enough of the time we should be folding.
(I think we have the best hand, unless he pushes)

Fair enough... I'd still rather have a read before raising this though.
Also, because of stack sizes I think you'll still be in a tough spot if he 3bets the river all in... the pot will be $34 and it will be $9 to call. If he'd bet and call a raise with a hand I can beat, he could also shove his last $9 in with the same hand and I'll have no idea what it means.
