Hero??
I was just hitting the 2/3 button on ACR which I usually do, setting up for a river jam. However, in this particular spot I think sizing up on the turn is necessary. There's two flush draws, and a ton of river cards that I am going to have to check and probably fold.
What would you do in this situation, if you say you would check, would you snap fold to a shove?
I have no idea how to format WPN hands. If there is a better way please let me know.

You can block bet 1/3 or 1/4 and fold to raise. AQ and AK still call your bet I think.
Or you can jam and cross your fingers (maybe AK calls you).

So you jammed with crossed fingers? :)
Yeah, villain had J9dd haha
Seems like an easy check/fold. There's no way we can valuebet:
Even if villain calls with AQ everytime (which he probably does not do), we only have 38% versus this calling range. So checking seems like the way to start the river. I also forgot 33, QTs even.
If villain bets the river I would probably fold. Versus QQ/TT/KQ/AJs range we have 0% equity. Villain definitely checks all his one pair hands back, so we don't beat any valuehands. We beat only bluffs, but I don't see many bluffs in villains range, because he can't really have air. If he bluffs, he has a hand like JT or QJ that he turns into a bluff, but it seems unlikely to me that villain would turn these into a bluff too often.
I would check/fold, very bad river for us.
Yeah this is kind of what I was thinking, thanks for actually putting it in equilab.
I was playing too many tables and kind of auto piloted and decided I didn't want to see villain check AQ or AK behind, so I had to make a quick decision and decided to close my eyes and punt my stack off to J9dd.
Going to start trying to play fewer tables because I think I could have rationally come to this conclusion had I thought for a bit longer.

+1 to x/f here.
OTR, its a check with AA. If opponent bets, you are indifferent to calling against smart villain who will bluff QJ, AQ or KJ. Against other opponents, its even easier to find a fold here.
Such a terrible river - I'd XF for sure.
