Villain will steal with any two, but other than that he hasn't gotten too out of line.

Maybe I am wrong, but it looks standard to me... Seems like a king is possible but not likely enough to fold the river. The flop and turn play seems right.

I would lead the river and call a raise - whatever gets 2 bb in there, hand is too good for check/call.

That's what I thought, just checking.

(I have not read any replies yet)

I think that you play it the same way I do.

I think that the only time I am pausing is whether or not to throw it away on the river.

After really thinking about it....

On second look, I am thinking that there was a decision to be made on the turn. With the scare card on the turn, and at the level your playing there is some thought that the bluff with a turn raise play could be taking place. It is a powerful play. To combat this you could argue that re-raising makes some sense. However, that would cost you an extra bet to which you would likely want to fold a cap bet. As such, you can see the showdown for the same bet. Against the strength shown, I don't think that you want to bet out on the river even if he calls the turn re-raise. Therefore for the same bet you can either playback at him, and if he is bluffing you fold, or get to the showdown. I am thinking that I would rather get to showdown for that bet. So I think that you played it as I would have.

Seriously? Why? On a 4-straight board with an A, what hand is going to bet this river and call a checkraise that I beat? I see no value in a river checkraise at all. I can see an argument for betting, but not checkraising.
