Default 99 in the SB, party 5/10

UTG is very loose pre- and post-flop in the 30 or so hands I have with him. Not aggressive, but not too passive either. CO is TAG preflop, but goes to showdown a little too much I think. However, he's been running quite well.

I think a few of the streets have questionable decisions here.

Assuming you fold to a raise, not too bad I guess. You might get lower PPs and maybe even unimproved big aces to call you, although I'm not sure about that. This looks like a pretty clear bet/fold to me - check/call probably won't work, right? Any hand that's worse than yours may not bet, so you'll only call better hands.

I would want to show this down and I wouldnt mind too much if it got checked through.

I would check call the river folding only if the action went bet raise.

I don't see any questionable parts.

You're against a loose postflop player and a player who sees the showdown too much. You will no doubt get called by ace highs here, and no one's made it look like they have a ten.

I think your line (assuming river bet fold) is good vs the players you describe.

Against some players, I think a checkcall is good. (vs agg/tricky players)

Against the really rare loose passives, I think we could find a checkfold somewheres.

My line on the river was indeed bet/fold.

Right now, this doesn't seem that hard. Immediately after the hand, I remember being uncertain of the river bet. Anyways, they both called. UTG had A7 and CO had 77, MHIG.
