Until river I think it's all standard.
River: Is my bet here ok? I felt like I was going up against AQ/AK type of hand as I expected sets and 2Pairs to raise flop or turn, so I bet. But watching it now it just feels that only FH will pay this bet.

Hey AtrociousNightmare,

Preflop call is ok but often better just to 3b bluff with this holding.

Flop raise is fine.

Turn bet for value is fine.

Seeing as we hold the K + Q blocker the river combos of AT/AJ are completely balanced by the combos of AQ/AK. If he sometimes folds AQ or AK vs a raise this is very bad. If he sometimes raises AT/AJ on the flop this is good. Can't say much more than that other than it's a super close river raise and might be better to check back in the long run unless he's going to be calling with A9 and weaker.
