[weralomos]

PokerStars Zoom No-Limit Hold'em, $ 0.05 BB (6 handed)

Hero (Button) ($ 5.96)
SB ($ 3.61)
BB ($ 8.55)
UTG ($ 7.58)
MP ($ 2.50)
CO ($ 9.39)

Preflop : Hero is Button with ,,
3 folds , Hero Raises to $ 0.15 , the SB Raises to $ 0.45 , 1 fold , Hero calls $ 0.30

Flop : ($ 0.95) , , (2 players)
the SB bets $ 0.45 , Hero calls $ 0.45

Flop villain can put in my assumption, this range:AxAx-9x9x, AKx-Ajx not everyone, but often they will continue to bet with them, as a bluff he can use Ax x, x 8x, x 10x, Plus a lot of different hands on type A3x,8x8x-4x4x - can be put in Marj, so one street is quite comfortable to play through Call

the Turn : ($ 1.85) (2 players)
the SB checks, Hero bets $ 1.33 , 1 fold

after a check at the villain in the range remain largely 10x10x-4x4x , and aces without a pair or a draw, so you can bet here, but it is advisable to have (AQo) in your hand Ac or Qc to make it more successful to bluff the river with them. The value of the range will be 3x3x-2x2x ,x 10x:icon_bigs

Total pot: $ 1.85 | Rake: $ 0.08

I really dislike your turn bet, I think AQ has showdown value, that's why called it on the flop, right? And I also hate your bet sizing. On the flop we should be raising our sets and we don't really have nuts in our range, maybe only T9s. For this reason we are betting only for thin value, thus we should use very small sizing. You should go for 25% pot sizing. But, of course don't bet with AQ, you should check it down.

Not having a read on SB in a Zoom game calling is OK. If SB is loose, then 4-bet.

Flop[/COLOR] : ($ 0.95) , , (2 players)
the SB bets $ 0.45 , Hero calls $ 0.45

Flop villain can put in my assumption, this range:AxAx-9x9x, AKx-Ajx not everyone, but often they will continue to bet with them, as a bluff he can use Ax x, x 8x, x 10x, Plus a lot of different hands on type A3x,8x8x-4x4x - can be put in Marj, so one street is quite comfortable to play through Call

I think the range is over estimated even for a zoom game. Villain has many more high cards than pocket pairs, 2s 3s, or 9s. With position I would raise. hero is more likely to have a pair or 9 given the flop call.

the Turn[/COLOR] : ($ 1.85) (2 players)
the SB checks, Hero bets $ 1.33 , 1 fold

after a check at the villain in the range remain largely 10x10x-4x4x , and aces without a pair or a draw, so you can bet here, but it is advisable to have (AQo) in your hand Ac or Qc to make it more successful to bluff the river with them. The value of the range will be 3x3x-2x2x ,x 10x:icon_bigs

As played OK. If Villain is folding on the turn she is not betting the river unless her card hits.

I'm not sure whether you're asking for advice on the hand, or whether you posted it as an instructional piece.
