CO is somewhat loose and very aggressive. UTG is a loose calling station. UTG+2 is tight and very aggressive. Please evaluate my play on all streets.

You missed a value bet on the river.

I'm not so sure if value-betting is right on the river. What hands might we put the villain on that Hero can beat?

Single high heart? Possibly, but the only heart I would bet on the flop is the Ah, and the river just paired him up.

No gutshot or OESD will call a bet here. 99, 77, 55, 44, 22 all seem unlikely given the action.

Pair + draw (flush or straight) is a hand I can imagine would call a river bet that we might beat, or a ten with a worse kicker.

Can you think of enough realistic hands we beat that would call a river bet, and do you think they are likely enough to justify doing so?

You seem confused about who the river opponent is. Reread the hand.

Easy value bet on the river against a calling station who has done nothing but call.

Whoops. You're right. I misread that hand.
