On the river I would certainly think that a 1.2 AF is capable of betting AK et all on the flop/turn. Showing this down, without any further info, is probably a must. Without any other info on the villian, I'd probably check/call and let him bet his nothing again. If I know he won't raise with a hand thats worse than mine, but will call with hands that are I'd lead the river. Against an unknown, however, i'm just checking and calling.

I think its important to note, however, that your flop cold call looks a lot like a flush draw (fancy that). Whether or not that would effect villians river betting strategy I can't say, but its probably worth considering.

I like the rest of the hand. With the ultra L/P in their I doubt you're taking this pot down without improving, you may as well let him hang around.

I think I find a fold preflop though, too tight?

the river choice imo is between betting and c'ring.

I'm not a fan of the preflop call. A check/call if fine on this river. You know you CAN be too aggressive on the river you know.
