.5/1 A8 BB defense

[vixticator]

Button loves to steal and always c-bets. This is a pretty standard line for me on this kind of flop HU, especially when I hit the board. But, backdoor straight draw plus I think I could have the best hand.

I hit an out on the turn, I think. But I decide to play it like I was scared of it which isn't standard but this opponent was very laggy. Probably outplayed myself, maybe not. Thoughts on turn? Should I use this line against some players or just go ahead and bet out like always?

River value bet + crying call. I don't know if my line looks weak or strong so don't think I can fold at this point. C/C river perhaps?

Just fold the flop? Fold preflop? I don't like those either. Anyway I'll stop yapping. Like some feedback on this one.
