i think betting the turn and if called taking the free showdown is a good line here. 19%pfr isnt the type to cap w/ 66 or less i dont think, so i dont think he's paired since 7s,8s and Ts made a set and he's betting 99 on this board. He's also betting an overpair, so we can rule that out. And we have the best unpaired hand.

no. I river bet would be some sweet value, but its very close. I think the guy is just as likely, if not more like to play 22-66 this way is he is to play AQ/AJ this way.

at first i thought the same exact thought, that's why i figure check it all the way isn't bad at all, then i decided to add that if the guy was a really light raiser chances are he probably totally whiffed w/ ace high and might call a bet on river

Ya, I think the river is a must bet. Even the biggest fish won't check a pair here 3 times I don't think. You will get paid off by AQ maybe AJ, and the worst case scenario seems like a chop. Bet bet bet bet bet.

a player capping pf is voluntarily giving you the lead. Isnt that in the least bit suspicious?
