Default 11$, Am I missing value here?

Should I be just pushing the river?

Villain`s preflop raise-check flop-coldcall turn play seems really strong to me so I put him on AA, TT or big draw like KdQd or QdJd.
I thought checking gives villain a change to bluff with missed hands.

How is preflop? My standard is to fold here but I`m trying to loosen up my early game play even thought looking at this call now I`m pretty sure it`s bad.

PF call ok with you being the one closing the action and the pot is multi-way.
Flop action is good.
Dont raise the turn. you only have a draw and its early in the game. You cant really bluff or even semi-bluff a multi-way pot.

Am I crazy - this looks way too loose preflop for a STT to me (but I'm out of practice).

And also, I push the river. There are a lot of hands that are calling that you have beat at the river.

he's closing the action and getting almost 6:1 on the call preflop. with the pot being multiway this is a good spot for SC imo. as long as we know what were playing for post flop (2pr+)

on the actual hand i probally play it the same as you did , i always get scurred when the board pairs the river.
even though i'd play it that way im sure raising/shoving river is fine/better too.
