[Closed] nl 25 SH AJ

He doesn't necessarily need to be on a flushdraw.
Betting the turn is fine. you've got two pair and want to protect your hand and get value from worse hands.
On the river I would play check/call or bet/fold depending on the opponent.
If he's aggressive I would probably check/call to induce bluffs and to minimize our losses against better hands.
Against passive players I would bet/fold. Worse hands will sometimes call us or fold (but wouldn't bet if we checked to them) and better hands will raise.

Since you are playing SH, i feel there are a lot more hands that CO could be holding opposed to PP and Ax.

1 - Suited, he could be holding KcTc and have easily called with a pair + flush draw. If he hit the nuts (or close to) on the turn, it is likely that he doesn't want to raise to keep you in the hand.

2- (suited) connectors, he could have flopped a straight with 89 or could have hit an open ender with KQ - actually the cold call on the turn doesnt really make sense, I assume he would raise to protect from the 3 card flush;

I would probably bet/fold the river.

I would go 10$ b/f here. He shouldn´t have 7 here, so if you were ahead on the turn then you should bea ahead on the river.
