My flop bet was called instantly.
This board really scared me... is the turn check ok?

bet the turn. Dont 3bet AQ. At least make a real raise pre-flop. Raise to 1.50 is crap.

bet 2/3 on turn and hope for a free river, fold if he leads. As played river fold is fine. You don't beat anything by the river except QJ

PF was not 3 bet. 1.85 is a pot sized raise, but still I probably make it 2. However I don't see a major error here preflop

Could you guys explain your reasoning for betting the turn? What hand are we most likely putting the villain on?

[Maulik]

hey,

I think you played this hand perfectly. There are many 2-pair combinations which beat your hand on the flop. The turn makes most of those 2-pair combinations a boat. So you're likely beat on the flop, definately beat on the turn and the river was obvious.

Part of my reasoning for checking behind on the turn is to keep the pot small. nh

Call the river.

why?

This turn needs to be raised, 3/4 to 1xpot would do. this properly prices out a probable villain holding of a SD, and protects the hand to an acceptable degree.

If called and bet back into this is a probable fold, The pfr call is representative of broadway. As played this is a fold unless I have any inkling he's weak, this is a stakes level where this is done with overpair.

If you had a feeling after the flop that you were behind then nh. Without that feeling I bet this turn however, you could easily see a lone K or A trying to catch a straight or a worse pair than yours.
I wouldn't reraise this preflop btw, I just don't like AQo against a raise in general, but since it's only 2bb I'd call it.

edit: and I'd fold river, a lone K beats you and his play reaks of slowplay, either a set or floped straight, neither you beat
