1/2 game at a very loose table. Lots of multiway pots after $10+ raises. Villain is loose but competent. I definitely have a tight image at this table as I was the only one not limping and not playing a ton of hands. Effective stacks 250.

Preflop:
Middle position limps. V limps in CO. Hero raises to 13 in SB with AhKh. Both limpers call.

Flop: (Pot 41)
4s 9s Qs
Hero checks, it checks through

Turn:
Ad
Hero checks, it checks through

River:
2d
Hero bets 20, MP folds, V raises to 60.

Any thoughts on the line I took here at any street and whether you would call or not? Thank you guys as always!!

Decent line in my opinion, as long as you folded river. "Nobody" bluffraises at the river in 1-2, so its an easy peasy bet/fold when you get popped to 60.

I like a bet on the turn though to get value from possible worse A,worse pairs- and/or a big spade that is drawing.

Edit: bigger pre for sure after i reread your description of the table dynamics. $15-20 is appropriate here. Youre raisingrange from the SB is usally tight either way, so you might as well get some fat value pre when you have a premium in this position after limpers shown interest in the pot.

I'd probably bet the turn, but not a terrible line. As played, I think I call.

I’d would’ve raised a little more, closer to $17, due to being OOP and looseness of table. Fine with checking flop. Would have bet turn.

River...Since you didn’t bet the turn repping the Ace, Villain may think you are taking a stab at the pot. He may have rivered a set or had Ax/Kx suited and flopped the flush. $40 more to call a $115 pot. Seems like he is trying to entice a call. I agree...almost nobody bluff raises the river in 1/2 and I wouldn’t expect the V to be reraising with just a pair

I'm fine with your line up to the turn. I like a bet on the turn as there are plenty of worse hands that may call. I'd pay off the raise on the river as there are also plenty of missed draws that could be turned into a bluff. V may also think a weaker ace is good based on the action on the turn

I'd probably bet like $15 on the turn and then put out a $20 blocker b/f on the river.

I'm OK with pre since it's AKhh. With AKo I'd probably bump it up a bit to $17 like someone said.

Thank you everyone. Right after the hand was over I was thinking I should of bet the turn. That was a mistake along with calling the river raise. As Petrucci said most 1/2 players dont bluff and I would usually fold to this raise but I have seen this player bet on the river with less than premium hands and I felt he might have pushed me off a pot a few hands before plus I was getting 3 to 1. The difference though that I failed to realize was this wasn't just a river bet it was a river raise and should of been an easy fold given the typical 1/2 player as per the replies. I just have trouble navigating these large multiway pots where a pot sized bet on the turn is often for stacks...

Thank you all!

LOL at Villain in the cutoff checking the nut flush twice.

IMO You lost the minimum unless you could have seen his cards before your call.
