What hand do you put him on that would check the river but still beats OP?

The problem with this is that the check is so weird. It's very difficult to say what he has. Offhand I would say the following are possible: AT, A8, A7, and T8.

Bad players do strange things sometimes. I'm sure that you have sometimes seen people just stop betting for no discernable reason. This may be one of those times.

Villain had ATo and MHWNG. I have no idea what possessed him to check the river - maybe he thought I'd fall for the c/r, maybe he put me on exactly AQ. He was very erratic.

Good check, then [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]. I check this as well -- I'm tired of being Mr. Smart Value-Better and end up being shown a scaredy-pants two pair in exactly this situation. This is a weird line, and I'm happy for a free showdown on the river.

Given the turn action (u checkraising and calling his 3 bet) it seems pretty clear that u have a bigger ace. In that case, u might have AK, AQ or AJ. It's a decent chance an opponent will bet AK and possibly AJ anyway, which will take away the risk of being raised the times u have AQ.

I would bet the river and really hate myself the times I get raised.
