b/f and c/c on the river will cost me the same. Why would b/f on the river be better?

They will call with many more hands then they will bet with, when they're given the option to check behind on this river, and they will check behind a lot on this river if we're ahead.
If they can raise you on this river they have you beat.

I disagree with this, as Hero began calling down after the flop raise. If he'd 3-bet and Villan had capped, then I think we're in a different boat, but Villan could easily raise KK/QQ/JJ on a board full of blanks.

No read on the Villain. What does WA/WB stand for?

Way Ahead/Way Behind...do a search.

I agree that this is WA/WB, but I'd alter the line to be a check/call on the river as well. I'd call it bet/fold if we had AK.

no way we're bet folding AK here when only AA beats us and only 1 combination is even possible. we also should definitely attempt to get more bets in with AK before the river.
