Default Re: Oaks 15/30 , two barrels or one barrel?

Yep def goofed this one. For some reason I frooze and checked behind, probably because of my failed two-barrel the previous round w/ the same hand which is obv a bad reason. River blank went check-check and I chopped the pot vs. villain's ATs. As I thought about the hand driving home I concluded the turn is a must-bet because 1. he'll likely fold hands I'm choppping with (worse aces) and 2. since I 3bet pre, most villains (incorrectly) will put me on a decent pair or AK, maybe AQ. If he got a smallish pair 66-99, the K is great card for me as now he might think he can't beat a bigger pair or AK, and fold a smaller pair which is obv great result for me. The only drawback is if he decides to c/r bluff a worse hand repping the K, but in hindsight I shoud've known that this particular player was very unlikely to do this, and hence I could easily fold to a c/r.
