Hey,

flop is just a check behind?

I thought with my blocker I could get away on this board. Maybe it is a little bit optimistic againt 2 villians.

Turn I checked behind because I dont see any better hand folding and KKxx or QQxx should have folded the flop.

The river call is a blunder right? In retrorespect I dont see any worst hands betting here.

I think the flop bet is fine as is the turn check. I am looking to get to showdown on the river so would not bet there, if bet in to would fold to a pot bet. I do struggle with being aggressive enough though.

Flop is a check. You need better AA to justify bet. Hand like AA87 is just fine to bet (better blockers and better equity vs calling ranges).

I play this different. I look at the ratio of my chips (after raising) to the likely pot total, and if it is too large, I do not raise with aces, and the reason is that more often than not the pots you win are small and the pots you lose are large. now, having raised as you did preflop. I am going to bet the pot on the flop. Your bet let hands in where you can easily outdrawn on future streets.
