[tg]MP3 (Hero)$100.00:///////;CO$146.50:///////;BU$128.05:///////;SB$53.75:///////;BB$100.00:///////;MP2$118.75:///////;[/tg]

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with K:h, A:c.

Flop: ($7) 4:s, 9:d, 8:h (2 players)
SB checks, Hero checks.

Turn: ($7) A:s (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $5.00, SB calls $5.00.

River: ($17) Q:c (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $14.00, SB raises to $35.00, Hero calls $21.00.

Final Pot: $87.
Results follow:

Villain is 26/8 after 81 hands, Agg fac 1.3. Should I be 1. bet/folding the River for value? 2. Checking behind on the basis that, the way the hand was played makes it likely I have an ace, so no worse hand is calling? Or 3. bet/calling as played? Villain had previously folded to my second barel on Jxx after call my pfr on BU - otherwise basically unknown.

I would cbet the flop. Mostly for value but also in order to protect.

As played I'd b/f on the river because he looks passive.
I don't think he's check/calling the turn with air to bluff on the river and he also doesn't look like he is capable of turning worse made hands than TPTK into a bluff - therefore we're losing almost always if we bet/call.

I also don't think he's folding many better hands to a river-3bet so that's not an option.
