Roughly the bottom of my open range here. Normal sizing is actually 2.5x, but there is a likely fish in the BB so I size up.

Figured this is a pretty good candidate to put into my X/C range here holding the Ad. No reads on BU other than he may be fishy due to stack size, but I was curious what others think about this spot. I figure villain can be betting some Ax, sets, 7x, flush draws, 67, 98, and T9. Possibly something like TT-88 as well, but I don't think those would bet 100% of the time.

Villain checking behind caps his range considerably on this card. 98, T9, 7x, flush draws and 88-TT are what I range him at here

River card uncaps villain so I cannot size much higher with this combo I think, but I figure a bet is mandatory here. I think any 8x will call for this size since it is unusual for someone to check an A at this stake as the preflop raiser. I may get a crying call from a 7 or TT as well.
Curious as to everyone's thoughts on my line. I feel like everyone has a pathetically capped flop checking range as the preflop aggressor at this stake, so I am working on trying to exploit that when I am the preflop caller, but also to strengthen my X/C range to exploit the regs who are aware of this.
