I agree with Pudge... this was a pretty terrible way to get to the river. As played, this is like the easiest fold ever live, especially with the player described.

because he played it the way he did, why is this such a clear fold? he made it pretty clear he didnt have a set or 2 pair by check/calling both streets. So if wong is observant and not as bad as most live players are, is it not possible for him to shove a wider range than those hands that beat AQ?

I don't hate the flop check call so much, but i think i wind up leading the turn when i do this.

The river...agh. After your line i kind of want to lead the river as well. I don't think it's the easiest river fold ever since it looks like two hands in his range beat you (JJ/66) but i think only one other hand in his range jams (AJ) and he's prolly a tournament life nit so AJ might not jam so okay, good fold.

jon told me this hand before telling me his hand/posting it here and it might be the alcohol but i really prefer to call and be wrong rather fold and not know

i think i always bet the river although it not being good if you've played the flop and turn like this, which i almost certainly would play like this, i always expect to check/call 3.5k and be good against 44
