hero bets $180 with broadway looking to get value from Ax here
Unlike some others I don't mind the bet on the turn. Also, it's real hard not to be influenced in evaluating the hand based on what happened.
Here's what I'd ask myself in your shoes.
On the turn my plan was to bet the river and have him fold a bunch of hands. Now on the river I'm thinking I can value bet and get called by those hands.
Is my plan consistent?
Long story short this might be one of those hands where it's more correct to bet when you don't have it, than when you do. But like I said, it's very hard not to be influenced by what happened.
Maybe checking back the river is the right thing to do.
