Villain is 30/12/0.6

Am I totally insane for trying to get more value on the river here?

I thought he would have 77 88 99 TT, but I should probably think a player with such high VPIP and low AF could have a range full of queens or even a 3, right?

This is the easiest river check in the world, right?

Dont bet turn, as played river is ok

[Suwalski]

I tend to c-bet this flop ALOT.
I doubt how much he calls with 77 88 99 TT on river. Prolly just check it. If you had checked turn, i think a bet at river would've been good.

[Bukem_]

yes its a value bet, yes bet the flop. villain is too weak passive to be encouraging bluffs.

[shpanko]

this is fine, I c-bet the flop a lot though,

oh and don't post results, it affects the responses people give.

cbet flop
after checking the flop I dont hate the turn bet that much
river is quite certainly a check behind

[Ballad126]

I generally don't like c-betting on low paired flops

But considering his coldcalling range I guess it's probably not a bad idea

AJ is probably ahead of him at least 60% of the time

I definitely like betting on the queen as played, though

River bet was utterly retarded

[dreamcircus]

Betting the turn lulled you into thinking that you were ahead on the river, hence the "valuebet" mirage you had. Ace-high on the turn with opponent checking flop/turn does NOT mean you're ahead.... in fact you're probably behind, with opponent holding a medicore hand that's better than yours.

At that point just check the turn and on river if he checks again, bet and fold to any reraise.
