Bottom set flopped against pre-flop raiser

Button is 33/15/6.5(100)
BB is 19/1/1(600) - plays pretty straightforward and conservatively.

Pre-flop seemed standard.

On the flop, I was delighted to see A and K to go with my bottom set. I knew I could count on the PFR to bet out. Check-raise seemed pretty standard. I was happy to cap with such an aggressive player, and put the BB on a flush draw.

I started to get concerned on the turn, but even if I put Button on a range of AA-KK and AK, I had about 45% equity.

The river card looked pretty bad...

Bet/call.

No way is it b/c. I check and call here. AK is now beating us, and that was a huge portion of the hands we were hoping he had. AQ very seldom goes nuts like this.

the main point is call, however.

[censored] river...you are toast. Check.

Everthing's nice up to the river. Now c/call. You're toast so often, you def. can't put any more money in. You're toast not often enough to not call.

Check-call. I would raise preflop, FWIW.

At 10c/20c, you'll get a couple of callers behind you anyway. I don't think a raise does much.
