AA 30-60 river spew?

[mike l.]

i get AdAs in the sb in an okay 30-60 game live. there are two late position posters who are new to the game. i dont know any of the players.

folded to poster 1 who checks, poster 2 raises in cutoff, button older man calls two cold, i 3 bet, bb thinks and thinks and calls, posters call, button calls. 5 of us.

the flop is 985 with two clubs. i bet, bb calls, poster 1 folds, cutoff calls, button calls.

the turn 5s. i bet, they all call again.

the river is Jc. i bet, bb pauses thinks and thinks and calls, cutoff raises, button folds, i 3 bet.

comments?

I like calling the river to induce an overcall from BB. I think the chance you get reraised (small) plus the odds that you lose the BB (large) make the raise bad.

Maybe there's something I'm missing but I don't get the threebet... why don't you give unknown CO credit for a flush here? I just call

That pretty much sums it up IMO.

i figured cutoff doesnt have the flush because he didnt raise the flop or anything. anyway bb folded cutoff called and showed AJd and my hand was good.

I like a check-call here. Bet call maybe second. Bet reraise is not a good idea---what are you hoping to accomplish by this? Do you honestly think the CO can raise with a worse hand than yours here? He could have anything from the likely flush to an unlikely full house but your reraise here is just donating money to his raggedy flush. Furthermore, the BB may have a flush and was trying to decide whether overcalls or another bet from you was worth more. The reraise is not a good idea.
