2/4 NL - I feel like giving up with Aces HU
 

2/4 FR

I have $512, Villain covers. Notes on him say he triple-barrels his draws and will float with just overs in raised pots, but never been in a 3-bet sitch with him before. I can't see raising river being all that smart.

UTG limps, 3 folds, Villain raises to $12, Hero raises to $40 with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4 folds, Villain calls $28.

Flop K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Villain checks, Hero checks

Turn T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Villain checks, Hero bets $60, Villain calls.

River 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Villain bets $32, Hero calls.

Anyone check behind turn and call any river?

Looks to me like you missed a lot of value.

Bet the flop.

As played you need to raise river IMO.

This is way over my limit, but I think you need to bet the flop. I'm not sure about the river... I've thought about this for 5 minutes and can't decide. If we're called I can't say how often we're good here, and if we're reraised we're gonna feel awful. As weak and dirty as it makes me feel, I think I just call that river.

TRWIII

Raise more preflop, 48 is good.

I dont mind the flop check given you have the Ac.

Turn bet is standard.

As for the river I think you can make a smallish raise to get some value as his bet looks like a blocker with QQ/JJ. Fold to a shove of course

I'd bet the flop, then check most turns if called on the flop rather than check the flop and bet the turn.

After that, I think betting the turn and calling the river is good. It is likely that villain has a 1-pair hand lower than aces but higher than 7s. So, a raise for value on the river might get a call from those 1-pair hands if villain puts you on Ks and 7s with an A-kicker (i.e. AQ or AJs, for example). But I'd usually call to avoid facing a big reraise or push to which I'd probably have to fold.

wow, bet bet bet

you said he peels a lot yet you didn't bet the flop, sounds like a pretty big mistake to me.
