Default Re: 50NL AA on a coordinated board

i donīt have a problem with your flop play. The board is just too wet to cbet here and cbetting on board like this imo is a big mistake. getting c/r would really suck here. and if hero had bet the flop and got raised every1 here would have said how can you cbet here?!
Betting the turn is right for value b/c your hand in underreped.
you missed some value by batting the river though

Monk, I don't usually disagree with your posts, but I think this is wrong.

I bet the flop primarily for value...and I suppose we also get protection/charge draws.

If we held AJdd or 33 or 56s I'd agree that cbetting in a standard way (i.e. in the hope of getting a fold) would not be the best idea. But with this monster and the enormous number of worse hands that will pay us, we must bet.

And if villain c/r us, well, we need to decide how much of his range is a set or draw or whatever. From what I remember of various Stove results in this spot against average players, the equity of an overpair/premuim hand is very good if we have cbet and there's dead money in there.

BTW, preflop I 3b to $6 here in position.
