Aces cracked...again

2/4 SH

CO- TAG, decent player,pretty straightforward so far. AF 2.7

he opens in the CO, I 3bet in SB with AsAh, he calls


Flop: Qs 8s 2d ..i bet, he calls

Turn: Qd... I bet??, he calls

River: 6d I bet, he raises, i call


The turncard is actually not good for me and was thinking about c/c but in view of the 2 poss. fd´s i didnt want to give a freecard..since he is pretty agressive i choosed to bet/call and call any non-spade river.... When he just calls im pretty certain he´s got a ten or a pp.
River is pretty mandatory, i guess

So, what's your question?

c/c or b/c??

[sqvirrel]

c/c river. He will value bet any pair and you only lose value to a hance like AK that checks behind.

uhh or all the other ace high hands he was calling down with once that queen pairs on the turn.

also if he might freeze up 33-77 thinking that you fear the bd flush. definitely bet/call river.

I never fold to the river raise here, I think it has something to do with wanting villain to know he sucked out on my aces

I like a river bet because people like to look you up with ace high on paired boards

Some players will but this villain wouldn't, if his AF is any measure. Any bet here is very skinny because a raise must be called so you have to get called down twice as often by losers who would otherwise have checked behind just to make betting a BE proposition. Additionally, checking invites a bluff by a hand that would otherwise have folded to a bet. With this board that won't happen often but it still adds a couple points to your expectation.

Finally I don't know how good Villain is but any decent player will bet any piece of the board when checked to, expecting to get a call from a missed A-high.

I often hesitate here on the turn. On one hand, there's so many draws out there so we don't want to give a free card. On the other hand, villain has called 3bet preflop and called our flop bet. There is a pretty good possibility he has a Q.

Still though, I think a bet on the turn is the right play.

I was wondering about the turn...not the river
