Ugh, big pot but I can't see you winning here. I'd also consider check/call the turn but it's close.

Why in the world would you overcall two people on the river with ace high? Seems like you are giving it away.

Yeah, I think that was bad. If I'd been in the SB, I might've been able to raise to catch a bluff, but in this case, my position stunk.

No way do I check/call this -- this is a clear value bet.
