AA deep

[Dadswell]

Villian is 36/25 and has been 3 betting me pretty light. I've 4 bet one time previously and he folded. A couple times he has 3 bet and then the flop went check check and he fired turn and river as bluffs. He has also slowplayed previously with 78s on a 88x board when I had AA after 3 betting me pre, he stacked me in that hand.

I was really worried about KK here. How bad was this? What is river plan if you hit spade, ace, nothing?

With his propensity to bluff I was thinking I should check all rivers except if I hit the A. Do you think checking if the flush comes is ok, or do you think betting is better in case he has QxQs and might make a call?

I think you played it fine. I definitely check if the river is a spade; it's blatantly obvious you have the A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] if you push, let him bluff.

Looks about right so far. I would fold to a decent river bet on a non spade though.

What about red ace?
