Pre flop pretty standard 3bet, and 1/3 of the pot c bet on flop also pretty standard, since it was a dry flop. OTT i still think I have the best hand there, so I bet around 2/3 of the pot. Here I put villain on AJ or AQ type of a hand, since or some weak Ax of hearts. River comes Q of hearts, so at this point I choose to check, since there are no really worse hands that will call a bet on the river. When he gets that big OTR, I think either he hit the flush on the river, but more likely I put him on two pairs. My guess is he had AQ.
What is your feed back guys? Was it a good fold or I should have called?
I personally think, that I only beat bluffs by calling the river. Maybe in some cases I beat villains over valued hands such as AJ A10, but I dont think thats the case this time.

Tough spot, I think it's a good fold.
You're not beating AT by the way as it makes two pairs.

I dont think 1/3 otf is good. My plan otf would be to go for 3 streets of value (aq will call). Just bet 3/4 otf, this board should favor you. Same story ott. By the way you bet only around 40% not 2/3 and thats way too low after that 1/3 otf. River is really bad, i dont believe hed reopen with worse so xf should be ok.

Yeah, true
What I think I am pretty much always vs 2 pairs + here.
I dont see any flush draw combos that calls flop except Ax of hearts. Also I dont really see which weaker Ax bets the river. AJ and lower would check back to see if they are good.
I dont think he has a set here, probably a set would have raised OTT. Also A10 most likely would raise OTT as well.
I am almost sure the villain has AQ or the nuts flush. Since those are the only 2 hands that makes sense to me.

I bet around 55-60% OTT.
Also its a dry board, so by betting 3/4, I make it hard for villain to call with worse hands. I want to keep all Ax hands in here, Not just AQ and AJ. Also 99+ pp continue OTF as well.
OTT I am for sure playing vs Ax type of a hand. OTR I dont see a point of betting. AJ would have a hard time calling OTR. A10, AQ and all Ax flushes raises my bet OTR, and worse hands are folding, so Im putting my self in a bad spot by betting the river.

Ahh sorry my math gone wrong, mb . Still, if i bet 1/3 otf i would bet big otr, maybe even overbet (not sure if t is the right card to do so. Otf i wanna bet big because no Ax should fold, same with pp. Or lets put it this way, maybe they should but ppl call them, so thats enough for me to just go for value. You are right on this runout i wouldnt be 3 barreling, but i was talking what would be my plan otf. Q is a very bad card imo and i would definitely slow down when it comes.
