Default AQ - river 2 pairs, but feel gross

<font color="blue"> villain is fairly unknown and has only been at the table for 6-7 orbits. seems donkish though becasue he limp/calls a lot PF and has showdown hands like K2s from UTG. has been a passive/stationy so far

im playing TAGish and v aggro, but villain probably just thinks i raise i raise too much PF </font>

bet 7$ on flop. obviously call his raise, i'd reraise dryer flops here.

turn: bet again! but check/call his bet is ok.

river: obviously the queen completes TJ and other draws , but it also helped u out vs a ton of hands. i'd bet 30-50$ here and hope he calls.

If we're not happy putting more money in when the Q hits why are we calling on the turn? We're putting him on JT exclusively? If that's the case we should've reraised earlier or led the turn. I think two pair is a very large part of his range, much larger than with JT. Sets are possible too but whatever,either shove or bet call like 40

we're calling because people will bluffraise flops and 2-barrel but will usually never 3-barrel unless we are beat, and on the turn there is still a decent chance we are ahead

ps - there HAS to be a better picture of tina fey out there somewhere in internet land

Seems he could have plenty of 2-pair hands that you just sucked out on, bet out.

What is better half pot value or shove? It's around a pot sized bet effective stacks.
