This is most likely a VERY basic hand for you guys but would you call the river here or are there just too many hands that beat us? Sorry it is readless but actually your comments will probably help me a lot on this hand. Thx.

I think I'd play this the same way you did. I'd consider 3betting preflop, though I'd think it was a marginal decision with AJo. Post flop, I can't see anything wrong. I'm definitely calling the river.

I would 3bet pre because of how loose BvB is.

As played without reads I think calling and folding are both fine. I think I would call

agree with 3betting pre.
as played easy call. he definitely vbets worse Ax since its BvB and his opening range consists of a lot of worse Ax

I looove the flat more than a 3bet.. we keep his entire range in.. and we dominate the **** out of him.
+ We have position even if we miss, and can easily take the pot postflop..

As played i am calling all the way.

Simple call here.
3-bet or flatting pre is both fine, it would be villain dependant.

I prefer flatting pre as AJo doesn't play all that well in 3-bet pots, and is likely to fold out a lot of his worse hands

Think you just gotta call here, I'm not loving it but draws bricked and he may value bet worse

Think this line is fine, don't fancy 3b with AJ pre to avoid spazzy 4bet BvB. When he only bets half pot I think it shows a willingness to keep the pot small, possibly betting 10x or maybe a gutshot but more likely a weak Ax combo.

Villain is probably folding if we show aggression at any point so I think by calling down including river we keep weaker hands in and manage to avoid losing much to AK/AQ/A10.

3b or call pre depending on reads, readless I'm calling to play against his entire range. As played, not overly happy calling river but think it's +EV generally.
