No reads on villain.

I figured he mad 2 pair on the river, AK raises preflop and if it doesn't I hear about it on the flop or turn. I hear from Q10 on the turn and there are no other possible straights

I like it. Looks to me like villain thinks his Ace-x is good and wants to see if you have one too.

I think the raise is fine. Im all about thin value bets on the river and there arent many hands that take his line that beat you and as you pointed out there are many worse hands that will call. I liiiiiikkkkke.

I would raise pf

rest looks fine to me. I play it the same
Most times this is Ax trying to see a cheap chowdown.

Post-flop looks really good. However, limping pre-flop is a bit iffy.
