Try to stack him or control pot? 5/10 6max
Maybe this is a boring hand. I have AQs. One limps. I raise on the button. Blinds fold. It is headsup. Villain is tight preflop, not sure postflop.
About 100 in pot now. Flop comes AA9. He checks. I bet pot. He calls. I'm certain he doesn't have AK or 99 because he would have raised those preflop. Turn [Pot: 300ish]. offsuit 4. He checks. I check. River [Pot: 300ish]. Another offsuit rag. He bets 250ish. I call. Standard? Who bets the turn hard in an attempt to stack an inferior ace here? |

against tight player, you should lean towards checking
against donks, bet the turn Howcome no river raise especially given your read? doesn't really make sense. |

Given your read, no hand beats yours other than A9, A4, or A-rag on the river. I don't understand your check on the turn if you aren't going to raise the river. I thought the reason why you checked the turn was to get him to lead into you on the river so you could raise?

Good point. I should have raised the river. At the time I was worried of being reraised and not getting a call from an inferior ace. I think a minraise would have been good. I played it poorly.

Your river action is not consistent with the knowledge you claim to have about your opponent's hand.
I'm making a moderate-sized bet on the turn here, but as played I think you have an easy river raise. |

I way prefer betting the turn to raising the river.

The only reason to check the turn is to get action from a pocket pair that didn't believe your "continuation bet" on the flop. I would just be trying to play a big pot and bet/raise at every opportunity. It's times like this when you pray that your image is good enough to get paid by a crappy kicker here. |
