The two opponents are loose passive, hadn't played at the table for long but I hadn't seen any of them raise.

9 handed Pacific 1/2$

Hero is UTG+1 with AQs
Limp, Hero raises, call, 2 fold, button calls, fold, BB calls, limper folds

Flop (9.5SB): K 9 5 Rainbow (4 players)
check, Hero bets, 2 calls, fold.

Turn (6BB): 5 (3 players)
Hero...

Suggestions?

Check/fold looks reasonable.

Yes check/fold is a good idea especially at a <font color="green">Pacific</font> table. They'll check/call with the stonecold nuts they will.

I still think you behind on a <font color="green">Pacific</font> table. Check and see what develops.

The reason why I said check/fold is because the board was fairly drawless. When people call you in these spots, you have to figure them for a pair (maybe someone has a gutshot here).

Now I would check the river again and let them bluff at it. I might overcall with ace high in the games I play in (and sometimes expect to drag it), but that might be a sucker play in the low limit games at paradise. The only hands I worry about are those with a 9 or something like 66.

Intressing to hear your opinion. I think I've gotten to committed to my overcards. Thanks for the input!

Hero... checks, bet, folds, Hero call.
Splitted pot between 2 AQ hands.

I think you played this hand fine, assuming you checked the turn with the intention of folding to a bet.
