AA: Top set IP vs straightening, busted flush draw river

Posted 6 years, 1 month ago

Blinds: $0.50/$1.00 (5 Players) BB: $82.29
UTG: $183.70
CO: $124.26 (Hero)
BN: $51.63
SB: $51.86

BB is fairly loose passive over a small sample. High VPIP, if nothing else.

Preflop ($1.50) Hero is CO with 2 9 A A

UTG folds, Hero raises to $3.50, 2 folds, BB calls $2.50

Gonna open AA.

Flop ($7.50) Q A 8

BB checks, Hero bets $6.50, BB calls $6.50

Gonna bet for value and protection.

Turn ($20.50) Q A 8 2

BB checks, Hero bets $20.50, BB calls $20.50

Blank turn, ditto.

River ($61.50) Q A 8 2 J

dd missed, but KT now wins, as does T9.

How do you play this river when villain checks? When they bet?
