Hero?
To be clear I am not toooo concerned with villain having a flush, as I think most of the types of flush hands he'd have here would have bet the flop (AKhh, AJhh KJhh, 67hh), at least a decent % of the time I would have to assume. I suppose it's not impossible especially readless to think villain coul have flushes here but I heavily discount it.
By the same token I think I am taking a bet-bet line with most of my flushes as I woudln't want him to check back an overpair. I might valuebet QQ or TT on the river as well but I might also want to check call sometimes with those hands too.
I 4bet AA pre mostly... so really I think my most likely hands on this river are AQ, KK, and QQ/TT at some frequency.
Is calling with AQ in this spot bad?
