Default stupid river raise?

1/2$, the river raiser in this is kinda agressive
hero has K J in the button

fold,fold,co limps, i raise,BB calls, Co calls

FLOP: A ,7 J
check to me,i bet they call

TURN:5
checked to me,i bet ,BB calls,MP crs (allin for 3),i call ,BB calls

ok i dont think much of what allins do,so should i have reraised him here to try to knock out the BB?

RIVER:K
BB bets, i raise,he reraises,i fold

should i have just called his river bet? would an average agressive bet a lone k here? would he call with a lone k after i reraise on trhis board?

i think the river raise was a waste here,not many hands he makes that will call my raise but plenty that beat me,

Can we not fold two pair on the river in a big pot for 1 bet? I don't care what line you use to do it.

Yes - wether or not to raise is kinda player dependent. But calling here is automatic.

You will lose your fair share - but you will see K7, J7, AQ often enough to merit calling.

On what hands do you put BB after he re-raises you on the river?
On the turn, you had an option to re-raise the all-in and you didn't do it. To the BB it screams weakness. You are weak on the turn, ofcourse, because you cannot beat any ace.
Now lets say BB has a small ace and you just broadcasted to him that you do not have an ace. What is he supposed to do?

Against these players, I think you can make a play based on the board and your hand. I'd be more inclined to do it (when you hit a piece obviously) when you have an A, or when there's a board you think may have missed the other guy, either raggy, or with one high rank card--if he doesn't have that one high rank card, he'll fear you do and be more inclined to give up.

yea makes sense,bad fold allright,
so raising the turn may have stopped all this right?

There was a ? mark at the end. That's why the words were phrased the way they were. No you can't see river 3-bets. But if calling a 3-bet makes you sick, just call the river. Raising the river and calling a 3-bet I think is pretty clearly the best line.

Well, if BB really does have a small A, raising the turn gains you nothing. He will call and he will win.
But on the river you have improved. Probably enough to beat an aggressor with a small A or a KQ
