These kind of spots are pretty standard situations lately where I just don't know wtf I should do and usually opt to fold unless villain is a total maniac.

Only a few hands in the game, player seems pretty TAGish with strong aggression when he hit something on the board.

As played, fold river.

Otherwise, bet flop, check turn, call river.

By barreling the turn aren't we only getting folds from a 4. since. if he called with a draw on the flop hes prolly going to flat again since the T dosen't really change anything?

Thanks for the comments, I'll bet - check - call / fold depending on the bet size in the future.

Prefer to call here, but with this play i rather fold. Turn bet transformed AK into a bluff (Yeh was ace high only but if you hit a K or an A otr your playing scared)

Turn is the worst card to bluff, on the flop his most likely made hand is Tx, as at least some Qx would raise your cbet. Turn is a checkback readless, his double raise and river shove look exactly like what they are, trip tens.
