Default Re: Aces hand, no reads. Did I play this well?

I'm going to slightly deviate from everyone else.

I think he should make a value bet on the river.

Opponent has a pocket pair. 95% of opponents are not going to play a flush or trips that weakly, particularly at these limits. Unless you have a read that a person is so passive they'll never bet a hand as strong as trips, boat or flush, aces is winning here.

And I'll go on the record saying I'm between weak tight and TAG... and I'd bet this river the way this hand played out.

Again.. if you know someone never bets their hands or they're particularly tricky... maybe check behind. But without that read, value bet.
