PRE
As this is 1st hand, I don`t have any information. I think I would raise any suited ace, A9o+.
Is checking behind too weak in this spot?

FLOP
I have to lead here to protect may hand, any 5x will call. Probably over-cards too.

TURN
I can`t think of any worse hand, that will call. Maybe backdoor FD, but that`s not very likely. Or should I bet again for protection and, most likely, free showdown?

RIVER
In this spot I can only beat a bluff. Is this a call, as I need only 25% equity to break even?

probably a fold. I doubt he bets any worse hand for value, and if he doesn't float your flop bet wide, i don't see how he can show up with a worse hand.

Hi,

I think pre-flop check is fine. A6o is hard to play postflop so I would rather keep pot small. I would likely bet flop and turn for value- he may call me with some worse hands and by betting I don´t have to fold better hand. I would likely bet river half pot for value- seems better option than c/f- he may always try to bluff you out since you checked twice and since he did not bet turn I think you may easily be ahead

best regards,
