Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has A♠ 8♠

UTG raises to 3 BB, fold, fold, Hero raises to 9 BB, fold, fold, UTG calls 6 BB

Flop: (19.5 BB, 2 players) J♣ T♦ A♦
UTG checks, Hero checks

Turn: (19.5 BB, 2 players) 2♣
UTG checks, Hero bets 4 BB, UTG calls 4 BB

River: (27.5 BB, 2 players) 7♠
UTG checks, Hero bets 5 BB, UTG calls 5 BB

Spoiler

Hero shows A♠ 8♠ (One Pair, Aces) (Pre 32%, Flop 71%, Turn 86%)
UTG mucks Q♠ Q♦ (One Pair, Queens) (Pre 68%, Flop 29%, Turn 14%)
Hero wins 35.63 BB

21 open utg, folds 54% vs 3bet, flop fold 54% which is I 3bet all aces suited, and SC, AJo, KQo?

flop is so ugly. turn and river ok vs his capt range? it is even hard to think what weaker is he calling, but when he checks he is almost allways weaker.

About PF, I think we may call AJ/KQ vs OR 21% if we have not happy SQeezers in blinds. So 3bet with AT/KJ ...

Flop, I like check behind.

Turn, I am between a check back and a bet 11bb to extact vs QJs, KJs, QQ. .

As played, river, I like your small bet to extract value vs hands mentionated above.

Hey GingerKid,

Yup, 21% rfi UTG is pretty wide so fine to 3b aggressively. A8s is a great hand.

Fine to check flop, but also fine to bet for protection on this specific texture.

Turn would be a mandatory call after flop check back. Villain checks again however, no reason to suspect our hand isn't good at this stage and we should bet twice for value. We can possibly get slightly larger bets paid off here imo.
