Default Simple river problem, top pair 2nd kicker

Fishypoker.com 200NL $1/$2 blinds

Villian is loose/passive. Calls too much for no-limit, but not horrible.

I have $312
Villian has $224

I'm in MP with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Poster checks, Villian limps, I raise to $8, fishy calls, folded to the BB who calls, Villian calls.

5 to the flop for $38

heads-up to the turn for $98

I guess vs a very fishy player you could make a thin value bet. How much will he call with a bad ace? All in?

You did say Villain was loose passive though. Would he check A4, A2, 44, or 22 three streets in a row?

Default is to check behind, but I definately miss value vs fishy players. vs fishy players they easily could have AJ and down...

Or, of course, just the spade draw which missed and you're not going to get another 2bucks out of him.

I'm checking this. With AK and that board I'd probably throw out another 50 since I beat AQ and AJ, but with the AQ I'm only expecting to see AJ if I win. Ten sucked on the turn.
