MP wins 246 BB

Would like some opinions on this. Obviously the river was nasty and he has all the Ax combos so the question I keep asking myself (because it seems so common): is folding here too nitty or really the only correct play in these stakes (or any stakes without a good reason for that matter)? Also I didn't want to shove the turn because that seemed like a massive overbet and thus an easy fold for him or do you not agree with that?

River is a fold.
Turn, if you get commited with your bet, shove, regardless of it being too large...That's my rule of thumb

Of course turn should push all in when hero think about this sizing, mamy cards is bad on river for this hand. We lose only vs AK, K9 on turn (AK shouldn't limp preflop but it is still nl5). River fold.

It's a limped pot, we play a bit more cautious. He has all K9 and AK in his range. Bet/call turn and x/call most rivers. On this particular river its easy x/f.

Nice. Thx guys! I always fear overfolding because they would bet there entire range but im possibly overthinking again

Not sure why you lead the turn when villain is the aggressor. Offcourse you have the straight, but I expect villain would bet most hands after the min raise on the flop. If you 3bet turn I would go for it with a shove.

I bet for value and I am not sure if he bets turn since its a good card for my range and dont want free river...
