So there`s the blind steal situation, and an A hit the flop wich looks scary for me but can it be for SB and BB to? Also there are many draws out wich is good for me because the draws pays well.
Question: After the turn 9 can i try another barrel or I can just hope that they will check the river to and I can reach the showdown with some EQ?

I'll bet/fold on this turn

I agree, but to the extent of doing this some of the time because you could very well make a weak Ace fold if you show aggression if you barrel the turn and river. Even before I clicked the spoiler button, my initial read was the villain had some kind of weak Ace based on the call on the flop and then checking behind the rest of the way. It's good to be right the odd time. :)

You definitely lost the minimum there, though I wonder had you played it a bit more aggressively, you could have possibly stolen the pot away. You had a very small sample size on the villain here (33% VPIP after 6 hands, so they could have been loose passive over the long-term).

But you live to play another hand though.

I agree that was well played.

No reason to overplay, fish love to call with Ax hands on turn and river.

Good hand. Fish aren't folding top pair so easily so I think your approach was good.

You couldn't play it any better.
Raise preflop, bet flop to see where you are with your hand. Since both called that's a pretty big chance of having an A so it's better to slow down the action.
Good job.

Prefer a delayed c-bet IP with connected board multiway that hits the blinds' range hard.
