Default AKO vs a good player

canterbury 15/30 9 handed
villain here is a regular in this game. he knows and respects my play and i know and respect his.

I raise in EP with AKo, folds to villain who 3-bets, folds back to me and i make it 4, villain just calls.

flop HU: 642r
I bet, he calls

Turn: K
I bet, he calls.

River: 4

I think about betting and think about checking. What do i do and why?

Theres really a player in the CB 15 game whose play you respect?

I agree with bet call. I dont see him betting a worse hand other than QQ.

bet/call seems about right to me. Seriously, what hand does he 3-bet at a full table that includes a 4? At no point has he raised or given you any reason to slow down, so why do that now? Think he 3-bets 66, A4, 44, or 33 preflop? I'm just now venturing into the lower-mid stakes games, but I can't see this. I have to believe that YHIG here.

edited to add: would a river 3-bet be out of line here?

I think that it is crazy to CR the river. Too many hands get off for free that you beat. Bet the river and enjoy that extra 1BB you made by not trying to be sexy, imo.

I wasn't. I was trying to figure out if he was more likely to call or bet a hand like QQ-JJ.

So you were debating check/calling the river, hoping to induce a bet that he wouldn't normally call on the river?
