UTG: 109.4 BB (VPIP: 9.52, PFR: 6.35, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 64)
Hero (UTG+1): 191.4 BB

SB posts SB 0.4 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.4 BB) Hero has A♣ 9♣

fold, Hero raises to 3 BB, fold, CO calls 3 BB, fold, fold, fold

Flop: (7.4 BB, 2 players) 7♣ A♠ 3♣

Hero checks, CO bets 2 BB, Hero raises to 6 BB, CO calls 4 BB

Turn: (19.4 BB, 2 players) A♦

Hero checks, CO bets 11.6 BB, Hero calls 11.6 BB

River: (42.6 BB, 2 players) 5♠

Hero checks, CO bets 89.4 BB and is all-in, fold

CO wins 40.8 BB

What do you think about this line of play? Would you have folded too, or snap-called?

Thank you,

Jeeforce

Check/raising that flop is really weird. Bet or check/call.
As played impossible to call on the river.

Thats al true, but does it apply if we have AK/AQ here? Even without flush draw.

No, I could totally see an exploitative x/r with AQ/AK here indeed, and even without FD. People are supposed to stab way too much (but depends where you're playing and all).

Agree. X/r is like turning a TP into a bluff and that is very bad. We have showdown value with a really good draw component so x/c is the best play.

7♣ A♠ 3♣ - On this flop most of A♣:x:club: combos should x/c, but the strongest ones, like AK, AQ can bet for value as well (or x/r, but I'd rather x/c OTF and x/r OTT as an exploit vs floaters).

7♣ J♠ 3♣ - On this flop check-raising A♣:x:club: is better since we don't risk with our SHD value.

In general, look for spots where you have some sort of showdown value. Pair + FD gives us plenty of equity that we often times can x/c twice.

Cbet OTF is fine. Check-raising as the pre flop agressor looks fishy imo.
I think turn could be really a mixed strategy between bet, check-call and check-raise, depending on what you want to look like OTR.
Lesse inclined to the check-call because we are OOP and our hand is clearly very strong.
River fold makes sense indeed. A better ace from him is likely.
