Default Very confusing river

SB is a donk, could have anything preflop. Button seems relatively tight for a Friday night player. I've just had a rush of cards, and just doubled up with AA about 2-3 hands ago. I'm 90% sure I messed up this river. Is the turn okay? Button has about $200 left on the river, and SB has $130.

There's a billion draws out there - I'd bet the turn way harder, like to 65 or 70. I don't like the river - sure lots of worse hands will pay off but there were two people in the hand with you and it's entirely possible one is on the flush draw.

What the [censored]?

I don't mind the flop. I would lead the turn much bigger ($70, $75) and I would definitely check the river and see what happens.

The river action is just so WTF? It's like you had a brain fart and decided to post the hand anyway [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I dont see why that's a reason to put all your money in the middle, he could just check this IP. There're a lot of hands that beat AA right here. By going allin you just isolate the hands that beat you (who will call) from the hands who dont (who wont call).

River??? Ok, they don't even have a pot, but only smaller set will (maybe) call this bet. And it wasn't played like anyone has a set. A little value bet is the best here, i think. (Hero's bet on turn seems like a blocker with a draw, i would raise my set every time.)

Bet the turn harder.

I don't think a villain will call a shove here whereas if vb 1/2 pot you'll get a crying call all day from 2pair. This guy is never laying down a straight so your shove. Don't bet what only a better hand will call.

the only thing i like about this hand is that you might get called on the river by two pair since your hand looks more like AK than a set.
