MP2 is 42/0/.62
CO is 36/2.9/.7
Both over ~100 hands

Preflop:
MP2 would let my ace win in a showdown, and I would never have to pay him off, so I like the idea of getting heads up with him a lot.
However the blinds weren't that tight, and I don't put it past the CO to cold call behind me, so I'm not sure my raise is good here.
If things turn sour and the blinds call, at least I have a good shot at seeing a "4 card flop"

Flop:
No reason to think I'm behind at this point, so I think my bet it fine. If CO folds I'm in hog heaven being heads up with mp2. I think calling the raise is ok too. There's no reason to think CO needs a set or any other scary hand to raise on this dry board.

Turn:
I have six pretty good outs, and 2 ok outs, so I like my call considering that playing the river should be super ez against these dudes.

River: I was planning on a bet/fold. Inducing a bluff is obviously worthless and CO is checking behind so often so no way am I not betting this. Also, I think MHIG pretty often.

Anyone play this differenly or analyze it from a different angle?
