Spoiler

$0.75 pot ($0.03 rake)
Final Board: T♣: 9♠: 5♥: 3♣: 4♣:
Hero mucked A♠: K♣: and won $0.72 ($0.36 net)
CO mucked and lost (-$0.36 net)

PF: Standard open followed by calling a 3 bet. 4bet might be better but I did´t really feel like it at the moment. Generally my 4betting range is pretty narrow. I need to work on that.
Flop: x/c is OK I think. In my opinion he Cbets whole of his range which includes worse hands than mine (e.g. A2s+, AQo, KQ, KJs, QJs).
Turn: Turn card doesn´t change much, I check with the intent of folding to a standard bet. Villain chacks back.
River: I thought I was such a shark to steal the pot with my river bet but I think he doesn´t fold any better hand than mine - maybe just some low pairs he hits with his low suited aces, which are only a few combos. I think I should´ve just checked back.
What do you think?

I dont like it. Look at your line. Doesnt indicate much of a strenght. Board is seem pretty safe even for low pairs. Check is ok for me. You do have showdown value
