Hero: Mid 20's, wearing a hoodie and hat, somewhat LAG. Winning 2-5 player. Definitely feel like I am the best player at the table.
Villain: Sat down 1 orbit ago, hadn't really seen him play any hands. Looks about 40. Sat down with 2 beers and a mixed drink and consumed all 3 in 1 orbit.
Stacks: Villain: $1000 Hero: Covers
Folds to Hero in CO who raises to $25 with 8

, Villain calls on button, blinds fold. HU to flop.
Flop ($57): A

Hero leads for $40. Villain calls.
Turn($137): 6
. Hero bets $85. Villain calls.
River($307): 9
. Hero bets $110, Villain raises to $300. Hero...?
I bet with the intention of getting value from aces with a spade that missed but also an amount that I can potentially fold to a raise. In hindsight, c/c river avoids this situation, but I felt like I was missing value from some hands.
Also going through my mind is that a flush seems unlikely as he may want to raise turn to play for stacks(ish) with the nuts or raise turn to avoid action killing rivers with a smaller flush.
