Default Playing aggressively versus scare cards

Seat 7 is solid but tends to not be able to lay down hands, seat 4 is a tad loose aggressive but not awful. Comments on all streets appreciated.

3rd Street - (0.60 SB)

I think your opponents most likely hand here is aces up. Its kind of hard to make out what he started with. I like it all, except for maybe the raise on 6th. I just call here. I don't think your opponent is expecting you to fold, and I don't think he has lower than queens up.

As usual, I hope you won this.

Well played. I play it all the same given the description of villian. I will add that while I'd bet the river, I'd really really really be hoping not to get check-raised. I wonder what a river check here even costs in the long haul? Especially if there is no shot of villian paying off with any lone pair lower than queens, specifically tens.

Fck that, I've changed my mind. The river needs to be checked behind.

P.S Beer you suck

You very obviously have huge balls of steel. I think after 6th I just call down.

Bart, what do you think your opponents think of you? Do they think you’re somewhat loose-aggressive? Because it’s kinda surprising you got called by two dead tens…

I think you played great. 6th I might take the foot off the gas cause this guy is still coming, but it makes sense to raise in case he's still drawing. My guess is aces and a 4-flush. I MAY check behind on the river though since he could be the type that bets when he might be ahead and checks when he has a cinch.

Yeah I agree, the river bet is the only part I'd take back. Although even it is close.
