MP1 is 92/0/.33 after about 70 hands... Calls down with any piece of the board. I hadn't seen him raise yet.

How's my turn and river play here?

Check/call river.

Re: AQs gets capped on the flop...
 

The betting on this hand is a little strange. The play on the flop suggests that you be up against a set of 7's or 9's. However, the soft play on the turn looks more like a steaight draw. Since I think one of the sets is likely, I would have checked and called the hand down

Against most players I like the bet call. But 90/0/.33 just get to showdown

Why?

Re: AQs gets capped on the flop...
 

I think we should be able to fold to the river raise here.

Re: AQs gets capped on the flop...
 

Because his hands are likely either:

-Draw (no value in betting if missed, but often players will bet their missed draw here)
-2 pair
-trips

I think the second two are more likely. Even if they have the first, they might have gotten there and trying to let you catch up. They have position on you.

I think we can fold to the river raise too if we bet, since I don't like that, I check/call and get value of the hands that don't beat me and lose the least when I'm behind. Plus, many worse pairs will bet.

Check/call the river.

Since you didn't, I think that you can fold to the raise.

Re: AQs gets capped on the flop...
 

Thanks very much,

I think check/call makes the most sense in retrospect. I catch the bluffers get to see the showdown. What hands that are raising do I beat? None. I gotta lay it down if I don't checkcall.
