By either betting and folding to a raise or check/calling. And is my flop/turn line good, goal obviously being to extract maxium.

Opponent is reasonable, nothing special.

Either check/calling or bet/folding on this card is horrible IMO. It's at least worth a bet-call and perhaps more against some opponents.

He could have a flush, JJ-AA. So I guess a check/call line doesn't make sense lose too much value. When I bet though he just can't raise me with JJ-KK.

Although I guess I beat a bluff which is enough reason to call his raise. Sorry guess this hand isn't interesting.

People also overplay AT and AK.

good line on every street

The line you take is perfect, can't think of anything else that would be reasonable. You can't check/call this river.

Folding this river would be horrendous. He could have wildly overplayed AK, hit aces up, been messing around with 10-9 or running a total bluff. Call and if he has rockets, oh well.

I think you can get an extra bet in on the turn by leading compared to the checkraise.
