Definitely worse can call us, i doubt theres many if any 5's in his range that we can value bet against but theres lots of pocket pairs and KQ etc will probably call 1 or 2 sometimes.

Hmm wondering if we should check at any point but i might just be being results oriented, i think you played it fine really.

I'd make it at least 80 preflop (maybe $1 if his f3b% is low).

As played, I might bet a little smaller on the river ($2) just so I'd feel a little better about folding to the raise (probably just results oriented though).

Not sure about check/calling the river, everything we beat checks back, everything that beats us bets big and plays perfectly. I'd prefer check/fold if i didn't think there was obvious value in just betting ourselves.

The line taken is so super super thin.

First off, we can't count on him having JJ/QQ very often because there is a good chance that he 4bets those pre.

There are of course going to be a lot of Ax in his range here. Not sure if villain would bet a worse hand on the river. I do see fishy players bet like 2nd/3rd pair on the river when checked to for an amount that is never folding out better or getting called by worse.

Personally, I like checking the flop here. The flop is bad for our hand because it increases the likelihood that we are drawing to 2 outs or it kills our action. A passive line here might be best.

As played I'm folding to that river raise.

At first I wanted to c/c turn and then c/f river but I think the line OP took is well played. That raise sucks but I don't see what we beat

I think going for 3 is super sexy but I'd bet river smaller.
