Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

Play hand

$0.05/$0.1 No-Limit Hold'em (5 handed)

Known players:
[tg]MP3$11.41:///////;CO$10.00:///////;BU$13.69:///////;SB$10.27:///////;BB (Hero)$12.41:///////;[/tg]

Preflop: Hero is BB with A:c, T:c.
MP3 folds, CO raises to $0.30, 2 folds, Hero calls $0.20.

Flop: ($0.65) A:s, J:s, A:d (2 players)
Hero checks, CO bets $0.40, Hero raises to $1.20, CO calls $0.80.

Turn: ($3.05) 6:d (2 players)
Hero bets $1.45, CO calls $1.45.

River: ($5.95) 2:d (2 players)
Hero checks, CO bets $7.05, Hero folds, CO gets uncalled bet back.

Final Pot: $5.95.

I know that close decision was on preflop. But i think it was no so big mistake.

Where I did a mistake ?
If I wo;; call this flop, on Turn I can get free cards from dro. I need to protect my hands here or no ?
River he bet too much here - don't want to expose myself so big risk.

Opp unknown

Preflop I guess that it is ok to flat. By raising that flop you somehow isolate yourself. I would have probably called flop, called turn and reevaluate on river.

As played I think that I might have bet/folded river too (half pot) if oponent isn't capable of bluffing or I am to scared to bluff catch him.

After taking the initiative what stopped you from betting the river yourself?

X/c 3 streets. What we achieve with the x/r on flop?

I don't like his aggression. x/c F&T and x and see what will be on river.

Preflop call is standard. I would check/call flop and turn and most likelly check/fold the river. I don't expect him to bluff three streets there.

What was the reasoning for craising flop?
Villains range is likely marginally stronger so i dont really care for craising
easy 3 street calldown on most runouts

Thank's all for answers.

And I want to ask you something onemore.
You have see a lot of my hands. And from all this hands there were hands with the same problems. Agression, CB etc.
Can you all say what problem you see in my game and also make some ideas against this problems.
It will be very good for my game and for me at all.
Thank's

IMO you don`t realise the real value of your hand. In this exact hand here, you have a hand that is either way ahead or way behind his range and by check raising you isolate yourself vs the way ahead range. This aggressive lines should be taken either with really strong holdings or with bluffs (more rare), when you have an average - showdown value hand you should not chase every single weaker hand you could get value from out of the pot.

Well that is prob impossible to simply answer just like that.
I think its always helpful to work a lot w equilab or sth similar.
Review your hands and try to verbalize your reasonings for certain moves.
-> Can I really valuebet here? How much does he have to bluff in order for me to be able to call in spot x .. etc

have to agree i don't like the raise on the flop. anybody think a block bet on river could have been used?
