A flopped straight hits massive aggression.

[nomadtla]

Given this guys aggression I think you overestimate your fold equity. (Though I think if you can reasonably put villan on the hands you listed which with an unknown I usually wouldn't be that generous with his holdings but I'm a big wus. If he was a known maniac then I'd open up that range, a little but I usually give my villans more credit than their worth, because as I said I'm a big wus.) I think 54% is about the lowest edge I wanna really push HU given the rake in most micros. Though I don't know how Party rakes or if its rake has a max. So with all that said, and a slight dissapointment cause I didn't even notice your math error either yeah by your math a bet is +EV but I think it's on the fringe, and being the wus I am I'd call.

Incredible. More proof that "Save pots, not bets" is perhaps the best advice I have ever taken to heart when it comes to poker.

The only thing to do here really is call, its easy not to give credit to crappy players for their hands, but they hit just like everyone else...

On the flop I was thinking he had a flush draw. I would have also bet and 3-bet the flop.

On the turn I was thinking he flopped 2 pair, and picked up the full house on the turn. But, I would have bet and then called his raise.

On the river, I probably check-fold because I think I'm beat but there's 16.2 BB in the pot.

I didn't think he slowplayed. I thought he had a mediocre to poor A-2 or A-5 in the hole.

I mean check-call.

The only way I'm folding this river is if the villain turned his cards face up and showed me the boat, and even then I'd probably still call it out of sheer bitterness.

Right. I meant check-call (that's why I mentioned the 16.2BB). Sorry about that.

Check-raise the turn/call a 3-bet.
Check/call the river.

You get a decent amount of bets in this way
and will find out if villain is at all maniacal.
