My A/Q Monster

... Or maybe not so much a monster. Am I too aggressive? Is that even possible? (I'm pretty tight)

You need to start posting reads with your hands.

I normally just get the hand later from PT so I don't remember exactly how they played... You could still have some type of input.

I dont see where in this hand you could be less aggressive. Against an unknown I would play it the same way.

what plays this way that we beat? A9s? Split w/ AQ?

What are you ahead of on the river? A9/KK are the only two that I can think of and those are pretty slim. I can fold the river. Reads can also make this a lot easier decision.

Given the preflop situation, blind steal gone wrong 'pissing contest' hands make this a call on the river. If he raised UTG, its closer.

A read is sooo important here. do they attempted to steal blinds often? I don't like the check on the flop. Lead with a bet. You need to find out where you are at. There are two hearts on the board, and you probably have the best hand, you can't be giving free cards away. Did they cap it because they had a pocket pair or big slick.(once agian you need to state any kind of read you have)

Now after the 2D comes out what hand do you put them on? Are they on a flush draw? If so you need to reraise and punish them for trying to draw out on you. JJ?

I put them on JJ but you have to call. But i think you need to play more aggresively. Send a message to everyone else at the table.
