Probably should've checked the river, the board seems too scary to get any value from anything.

Hi web,

This is definitely an unfortunate runout for your hand.

What hands did you hope you can get called by or was this more of a "I don't know what to do so I'll bet small" spot?

Definitely check/fold river imo.

This was one of those moments, when I just press the bet button quite quickly, without using my time to actually stop and think for a change :f_rolleyes:

why not cc river? he looks preflop passive, but postflop AF is very high (probably sample size is too small postflop). There are so busted draws in his range, and weak pairs that can be turned into bluff. But yeah, after he calls turn, we can say that he will fold some weak pairs.
Why not bet 20% riveR? I doubt this player would turn weak pairs and 2 pairs into bluff, so we still extract some value from weaker, and can comfortable fold vs raise. Ac blocks many made flushes in his range also.
