Pretty easy call given villain's aggressiveness and loose preflop range. He'll have two pair pretty often, but the call will still be profitable long run.

Agreed. You played fine if you folded the river. If villain had Ax, he'd bet smaller on the river or c/c. I don't think enough players at your limit are turning 6x or Jx into bluffs. You're really not beating anything, and for that sizing it's a pretty easy fold.

Yeah, I folded it but I wasn't sure it was the correct play at the time. I thought he might have check/raised if he had AJ.

Thanks for the replies.

I think you are beat here.

He can have many hands that can beat your top pair.

Surely hes betting for value.
