Default HU AJ high top board card paired OOP

Villain is 70/50 over 20 hands or so, I haven't really seen him get out of line postflop like I'd expect someone with his stats to. He raised and capped PF then check folded a ragged flop OOP, he limp reraised from the SB HU against the BB with A4o, CC the flop and turn with A4 hi on a paired board and check raised LP made on the river. He's been (gay)betting quite a bit on the flop.

Is the turn check good? Any value in a river bet?

the bet on the turn is mandatory. Although i'm not sure I like the 3 bet in the bb. Ok as a change of pace though.

the wager on the turn is essential. Although... i'm not quite sure I dig the triple wager in the BB. Acceptable as a change of momentum though.

You guys calling down a turn raise?

Are y'all serious this isn't a 3 bet PF against a 70/50?

I think I probably 3-bet preflop, but be careful on yoru read. I lead the turn, and then get confused as hell if he raises. If the board was more coordinated, I would definetly call down, as he more likely could be semi-bluffing. Given this rather drawless board, I think I might fold.

That's still 10 out of 20 hands he's raised PF, we can safely assume he's full of [censored], especially with the open limp reraise from the SB with A4o read. I'm even a favorite against my opening range from the HJ with AJs in the BB, and I'm only like 17% PFR.

hey man,

I would have prob played the same, this river is an easy check/call. I think the correct line is betting the turn here and id find it hard to fold to this guys turn raise.
