I don't understand the t50 bet? In aggressive player is coming over the top of you every time here.

I'm simply calling.

Bet the flop. Don't really like a check/raise because you don't know if there is a better ace out there. Gotta see how they react to a bet.

I always assume people are paying attention that I am playing from the blinds. There are two 4s on this flop. I think that I want to make a blocking bet here. No? (And I'm not using this term because of recent events.)

I think a thinking villain could see you are playing from the blinds and see your weak bet as a bluff rather than a block.

Don't assume anything about $33 players.

I like check/call the river.

i would fold to his river raise. at the very least, his kicker plays, and possibly a much stronger hand (not that it really matters from a results point of view).
