what do you think?
let me just explain my thinking process:
preflop nothing to discuss, easy call as far as im concerned
flop - if i donkbet it and get raised i might have to fold the better hand as villain may not put me on the A and try to price me out. so by check raising, i get more value, i indicate strength which will discourage reraisers unless they hold a monster and i therefore will know where i am at
turn: they have both called me down, maybe a slowplayed monster or AJ i thought.. of course there is the chance they are both bad players and picked this spot to flat me so lets make a WEAK bet to see how they react to it, maybe i can end it here. (this is the play i am not sure about by the way, but pot control oop is too hard, hence a blocking bet)
i just noticed the two hearts maybe they were drawing... im sure you will say bet more on turn now
river is obvious shove
