Curious what you have to say about this one! On the river, I took a very long time, and eventually made a crying call. I need to win a little bit less than 30% of the time if I'm right? I was surprised to see his hand.

Do I cbet flop here?

The two check/calls may have convinced opponent you had a weak hand
When he checks the flop, I rather think he doesn't have a 7

You do have the Ace, and a decent kicker, but I wouldn't make a habit of calling in such a spot.

it depends on villain if I would cbet or not. Off course you can easy represent a decent over pair. As played I would most likely bet the turn for value and protection with the ace. As played I would play the hand the same to keep villains range as wide as possible. Check raising turn or river would be over playing your hand I think.

I'm having trouble in these 3bet spots where I missed flop. I always feel like they call so often if I bet. I guess I could have easily bet turn for flushdraw value, maybe some weaker suited aces he decided to call preflop.

But question: What would you do on the river when he calls a bet on the turn? Would you bet-fold again?
