losing my touch?

Villain is unknown, I don't really mine full tilt. He's seemed pretty LAG from the few hands i've seen him play.

I just like auto-pilot checked this river and then realized I may have missed some value and that plays like this could be creeping into my default M.O. Is this a B&M style river puss-out or a savvy check?

I would bet/fold against someone I could trust and check the river against someone I didnt.

I'd bet/fold an unknown here personally since he seems happy to call down.

I think A9, A8 or a lower PP can pay you.

I think A9, A8 and a lower PP 3-bet pf, no?

Well, I'd guess Ax(x>~6) could have raised, but what can we put on a SB who calls a steal anyway? What's the SB on FT?

$10

also A9 c/r the flop no?

I think check is worth considering but based on flop/turn he can't really be going for a c/r here profitably

Right, but people do unprofitable stuff all the time. I think it's dangerous to assume that some unknown villain would be smart enough to just donk a rivered straight.

I have to be running really bad to check here. When I make a play like this it is usually followed closely by me ending my session.

I'm not wondering that as much as I'm wondering how he resisted the temptation of c/r'ing his gutshot or draw of sorts
