But do you play it differently? Is this pot winnable?

Could we bet/fold about 350 or so on the river?

No, I don't know how you play it differently. Your PF raise is fine you got a couple of callers, you made a good bet on the flop with a hugely draw-heavy board. The turn brought the pretty much the worst card you could see, and you check fold to a strong river bet. How could this be played better?

Problem w/ betting the river is that my AA is already behind every legitimate hand villain could hold. So betting is -cEV, I think? Only hand I beat in his range would be AQ and, of course, a bluff.

I think you played this hand really well - the range of hands that has you crushed is huge.

Horrible flop/turn, good fold.
