Default Lay down the rockets HU?

Villain (BB) is 16/10/1.8

I don't see what he could have on the Turn that I could beat. Should I have folded to the CR?

Why is KK not an option for him here?

with 6 clean outs i dont think you can fold to his checkraise.
I dont think he plays an AK like that on the flop, so all of your aces and kings should be clean.

Certainly an option. But not sure he'd CR w/KK after I had 4bet preflop, and I could likely have AA, the nuts or a set.

You don't fold the river after missing do you?

You played this one good. Time to get out of the kiddie pool and start making some moves.

I don't lay down AA heads up ever on any board unless I have a very good read on my opponent. Usually in cases like this, you are beat the vast majority of the time, but you do see enough of KK/AQ and even the other AA to make this a worthwhile calldown.

You definitely cannot fold for the turn check-raise, as his most likely hands are QQ/JJ/TT and you have 6 outs against those hands. On the river, you are getting better than 13:1, so you call.
