Pre-flop: (7 players) Hero is SB with 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
4 folds, Button calls t50 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t75)</font>, Hero calls t25 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t125)</font>, BB checks.

Flop: Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (t150, 3 players)
Hero checks, BB checks, Button checks.

The villain hasn't done anything out of the line yet, limper for the first time. How do you like my line?

Why that amount? You aren't going to get called by many worse hands. I think you could bet a bit less.

If I think my opponent has anything resembling a clue, I'm not sure I like calling on the river. He surely checks aces I beat behind?

I'm pretty sure he never checks behind with an ace you beat.

I'm pretty sure he hasn't got a clue then.

Im pretty sure you need to reevaluate who has a clue, find me one person in the world who checks behind an ace that you beat and I will give you 10k.

EDIT for actual content, c/c river I dont think you're getting a lot of value from a non ace but he will raise a better ace/same ace plus give him a chance to bluff the 12 million missed draws, rest is fine imo.

Turn is fine - people love to bluff at As in position.

c/c river - catch some bluffs and keep it cheap.

Just for the sake of variation I will check raise the turn here about 50% of the time (here to c375). Ax with low x but higher than my 6 may well fold, and you get rid of the draws. If you're called, you're done with the hand and have to check/fold the river.

Raising because you expect people to fold better A's and draws so you can check-fold river is horrible imo.
