I actually timed out trying to decide if I should call or not. The more I think about it the more I think I should have called.

For my money it's an easy fold.

That looks like a bluff to me, after he realized your weakness on the river.

Easy lay down to that river bet. Why not lead on the river with a blocking bet to try and get a cheap show down and avoid a potentially difficult decision?

Do you think he filled up his boat on the river? Just seems like he would of raised on the the flop with an ace.

Stewart-Thats what I was thinking, maybe a bluff since it was a bet he might not want called. And it was strange not betting an ace on the flop.

I think its a bad laydown. Do you really think he checked the first ace on the button if he has one? And doesnt that river bet scream bluff?

FWIW, I would have bet the river - to block this move. Probably would have bet ~7.

Yup. I think you have to bet or check/call to induce a bluff.

I put villain on Axs probably weak kicker.

Yeah, but he was last to act, so why not bet the flop.
Maybe a busted flush draw?
