i would have 3bet preflop. he's in a position to raise with weak hands, especially considering the extra money in the pot from the the 2 posts.

and check-raising the flop... that's not gonna do anything other than make a queen call you down and put you in a bad position, which is what it looks like may have happened.

I would definitely 3-bet this preflop. It's 6-handed and there are 2 extra blinds.

Since you didn't, I like your flop check-raise and turn bet.

On the river, I would probably check and call. No worse hand is going to call but AJ, AT, or 99 may take a stab if you check.

why do you like the flop check-raise?

You really need to 3-bet this preflop with the poster and considering CO posted also.

There aren't a whole lot of hands you're ahead of on the river but the most likely ones that come to mind may take a stab at it if checked to. Check/call may be OK here. Betting still probably isn't horrible. Check/fold even wouldn't cost you too much in the long run. I'd probably just bet out again though to be honest.

It´s a mandatoty threebet preflop. Co is a poster and in late position so his raising standards are very ligh here. You have the best hand here a majority of the time and there are a bunchof hands that CO could hold here that you are a huge favorite against. So threebet to get it HU.

Since you didn´t i think a checkrase on the flop is good since CO will autobet this flop.
Turn is ok
I would check-call this river. Bettting is fine also but I would hate if I get raised here.

It seems to me that folding to a raise would be fine here. If not then check/call I think is better.

exactly, he'll autobet. if you check, he'll bet with anything. you gain no information about the strength of his hand because.

Well my reason would be it clears out the MP if he has a hand which carries a single overcard.

This is a flop 3-bet though.

with no reads on the villain I´m inclined to check-call this river.
