I seem to have a lot of questions about the way I'm playing the river lately. Aggression not where it should be.

SB is 28 / 15 / 1.25
BB is 53 / 0 / 0.23

Do you raise this river? The way the betting was going on the flop, it seemed like TPTK vs. a set between the two of them to me.

I would put the SB on QQ, JJ or AQ, since he raised preflop and then called and capped the flop bet. I think you got outdrawn by a full house and since CO is left to act I would just call and go for that overcall.

I would raise preflop very often with this hand in this spot. River call seems okay as well. This hand is whack and this type of flop play often = set, although it would be odd to see it from the PFR...

Yeah, I hated myself a little for open donking like that. I thought it a hand to like company rather than making people go away preflop, so I just limped. Bad thinking?

I don't think I would raise this here. You've got a SnG from SB plus CO to contend with, so calling and going for the overcall is OK.

I'd openraise this PF a large % of the time as well

SB had AA
BB had KQs
