1/2 NLH

CO (limply limply cally cally): $120 stack, limps
BTN: (Weak Tight): $180 stack, limps along
ME, SB: $260 stack, Raises to $14 w AdTd
BB (good pre flop, but slightly too passive post flop): $175 stack, calls
CO: calls
BTN: folds

3 handed to the flop....

Flop come 2cAs9d pot $44

I elect to bet $15 (1/3 pot).... dont feel like I'm gonna get any action off these passive post flop players.... and I really dont want to bloat the pot 3 ways either...

BB calls, CO folds....

Turn Ks, board is now 2cAs9dKs pot $74

I fired out $50.... BB tanks for about 30 seconds or so fiddling with his chips, counting them, seperating them, then calls....

Now I'm thinking.... A? 2 pair? Am I out kicked? I'm gonna need to check call most rivers, for about $100 here.... and lose to a AJ, or a AQ....

River comes 2s board now 2cAs9dKs2s

I check, and BB checks back, we both flip over AT.... split pot....

My question here is, should I have went for value on the river figuring even if they did have me out kicked we are playing for a split and I might get them to fold?

Very difficult to bet there, hoping for a split pot...I would have checked, thinking I was outkicked.

You have to fire again on this river, you're chopping all Ax hands except A2/A9/AK, you've already hit max-rake for the hand. There are no deuces in BB hand. Fire big here and see if you can get BB to fold a Ax hand that would chop thinking that you have AK. Live players love to put opponents on exact hands and often play that way.
