I've been raising a lot on this table preflop and postflop because of getting good cards preflop and taking them down preflop and catching good flops only to get a badbeat twice.
Thus people are thinking I don't have good cards all of the time.

Here, after a raise preflop and a c-bet which villain calls and after check-check on the turn I suspect villain has medium pair ,Ax or some face cards.

After the ace hits the river, I check because villain will not call a bet from me with medium pair and face cards. Is my way of thinking right or should I just lead out in case he is slowplaying some big hand? And after a riverbet from him should I just flatcall or checkraise. I think he will only bet if he has an ace and I have him crushed, but I also am thinking "Don't go broke with one pair.".
