$0.10 NL FAST (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players

Hero (BTN): $10.20 (102 bb)
SB: $13.89 (138.9 bb)
BB: $15.22 (152.2 bb)
UTG: $23.57 (235.7 bb)
MP: $6.68 (66.8 bb)
CO: $10.50 (105 bb)

SB posts $0.05, BB posts $0.10

Pre Flop: (pot: $0.15) Hero has A K
2 folds, CO raises to $0.22, Hero raises to $0.80, 2 folds, CO calls $0.58

Flop: ($1.75, 2 players) K 5 2
CO checks, Hero bets $1.41, CO calls $1.41

Turn: ($4.57, 2 players) 9
CO checks, Hero bets $1.02, CO calls $1.02

River: ($6.61, 2 players) 3
CO bets $7.27 and is all-in, Hero folds

No information about the opponent.

Flop: 3/4 bet I think is okay here, since I'm not blocking A spades or K spades either.

Turn: Do I have a bet here? Or should I IP a check-behind here? I don't know how useful my bet was there, because it also served as an information bet for me to see how good I am and I didn't want to give him a free card.

Hello,

On the flop that size of CBet I don't see bad, maybe unbalanced, on the turn I like to continue betting for the value of TP, TP+FD, As2, As5, As+gutshot, etc; but I would do it at 60% of the pot, at that size you even leave a profitable call for odds.

Not sure about the small Cbet on the turn. Looks pretty weak and your hand needs protection and I would Cbet around half pot.

River seems standard as played.

Cheers,

Yes the flop bet was also definitely too high. turn I think check behind better and at the river you should definitely give up just against an all-in

For me on the turn it's cBet/fold.

He certainly has some flushes in his hand range, but the question is whether check turn and call river is better since we also have position on him.
But only to call if of course there is no spade on the river.

Unfortunately, we don't block anything to A or K in spades, so it's more likely that he has these flushes in his hand.

Flop Cbet size is on the larger side but I don't think it's a bad bet at all. It's not a super wet board though so usually a larger bet like this is less likely to get calls

Turn I would bet for value QQ-TT aren't folding and A♠x K♠x are all coming along for the ride. Half pot bet is probably good here. This small bet really just seems weak

Hello,

I like this line against a regular who probably won't pay us three barrels with a worse TP, let alone some second pair. Hands that if we show weakness on the turn can donke the river.
So I like your approach.

Cbet 60% or even 75% on the turn as well, youre missing a lot of value from fd + pair there, and with that sizing usually you have an easy decision since oponents will play faceup there, vs call = youre ahead of he raises or donks river you know youre beat and on blank river you can even bet your tptk for value since people still overcall a ton but its harder in3b pots since a lot of the time you can just shove turn due to pot to stack ratio

All strret looks good, maybe on the turn just check back, more less you have to take you loose, you dont block any spades.
And if he only bluff on the river than it is his turn and better wait for better spot.
