Villian is unknown, but I have not seen him do anything over the few hands that I have seen on the table

Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool (http://poker-tools.flopturnriver.com/Hand-Converter.php) from FlopTurnRiver.com (http://www.flopturnriver.com) (Format: 2+2 Forums)

BB ($12.25)
UTG ($13.85)
MP ($9.70)
CO ($27.20)
Button ($61.50)
Hero ($39.90)

Preflop: Hero is SB with A/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 8/images/graemlins/heart.gif.
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $0.85</font>, BB calls $0.50.

Flop: ($1.60) 7/images/graemlins/heart.gif, A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 2/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $1.25</font>, BB calls $1.25.

# so what I think his range is here:
# A2-AT, any pocket pair, 67 and 87

Turn: ($4.10) 2/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $3</font>, BB calls $3.

# Now I narrowed his range down to: A low ace, or maybe
# PP &gt; 7, He can also be slow playing a set maybe even AA

River: ($10.10) K/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $34.9 (All-In)</font>

# I guess I'm not folding for the last 7$ here, and this way I can perhaps get some other aces to fold ( which we would split )

What do you think of this line, and thinking?

I like it. Spots like this are the ones that I have to improve the most.
I think the ranges u put him on are quite accurate, maybe AJ on the flop, and depending on how passive his numbers he could have some better hands here.
Set or even quads are definetely part of his range on the turn.
River, as u say, I dont see a way of getting out of it if I check and shoves, so Im better shoving this and probably getting some value out of it. It looks like we are heading for a split.

Seems fine to me, if you were level stacks I would not be sure, but here the river is either a blessing or a curse.
