Default AK UI on river vs 2p2\'er

Villain is a 2p2'er, runs at around 25/18 or so. He may or may not know who I am, but probably sees me as TAG. FWIW I value bet this river vs a lot of villains but im not sure if theres much value here.

Absolute Poker
Limit Holdem Ring game
Limit: $2/$4
3 players

Pre-flop: (3 players) Hero is SB with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
<font color="#cc0000">Button raises</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero 3-bets</font>, BB folds, Button calls.

Flop: 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (7SB, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">Hero bets</font>, Button calls.

Turn: 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (4.5BB, 2 players)

yeah i usually bet ehre defensively, if u dont think he takes A hi this far enough u can ck fold.

i hate ck call so if u cant ck fold id bet, theres not much he ll get this far with and hafta bluff ya know, hes either got a PP or A hi, randomly some hearts i guess which may mean u cant ck and fold i duno.

I would bet here. I'd also strongly consider calling a raise, but I think you hardly ever get raised here, and if he is pretty straightforward a fold is good.

so.... b/f

Insn't this the kind of player you should bet against in this situation? A loose villain with a much wider range is more likely to have hit this board I would think. This looks to me like a situation where betting could get the opponent to fold a better hand like A2,A5 or maybe even A6.

My line would be bet/fold.

he is never ever folding a better hand, you want value from a worse ace hi

Valuebet and get called down by ace high. He's rarely raising this river.

Check call.
if he calls,he probably have beter hand,unless he calls u with A high,which is only 3 left in deck,and if u check he might bluff u with a hand he won`t call with,played it well on all streets good play

Check-call is really bad. I'd almost always bet here.

If he is decent, he is never bluffing when you check to him. He should be expecting you to c/c A hi, and therefore should not be bluffing a missed draw.

By betting and collecting value from worse A hi, you avoid this decision.

Yeah, especially if he knows who you are, he's never ever ever betting a worse hand here.
