river decision with ace high

Why do we bet the turn when we cannot fold to a checkraise?? The turnbet makes us vulnerable to make mistakes and against an unknown this should be first priority. I'd check the turn and call a riverbet.

I totally disagree. Pot offers 3:1 if we get a fold right now. This is quite delicious combined with the fact that we're only a 2:1 dog against any single pair hands. There's a good shot he has a weaker OESD (kicker).

We bet the turn because most of the time we have the best hand and we don't want to give free cards to 6-outers.
