Looking at this hand afterwards, I realise this hand was played awful. I guess I should have checkraised the flop - but what should I have done if he reraised all-in? AK/AT/TT beat me, and those hands could easaly be in his range. The turn check is horrendous - agreed. As played, the river is a call? Should I 3bet AQ PF?

What's his steal percent? Did you consider 3betting pre?

I could go either way with the flop c/c or c/r. c/r folds out all his bluffs, so c/c is probably fine. What's his double barrel percent? Does he fire two streets often? If not, you could consider leading the turn, though the check again isn't horrible. On the river, you could likely find a fold. The only value hand you beat is AJ, and you chop with AQ.

His steal% is 22. His Flop CB is 61%, his Turn CB is 0%.

Interesting you mentioned leading the turn since his Turn CB is 0. I don't look very often at this stat, but you just gave me a reason to

So 3betting AQ is completely possible? To what amount would you 3bet him? 3$?

TT, 88, KK, and JQ also beat you, and the only one that wouldn't make sense given his line is 88. the only hands you beat are bluffs and weaker aces, and i guess kq and kj suited in clubs. it is conceivable that due to the checked turn he might think he can raise a weak ace for value, but without a read that says a dominant part of his range is pure bluffs, i don't think you should be calling the river (and never raising).

four handed i like a three bet preflop.

I will bet the turn like 2~2.5, if I get called c/c the river.

As played I think I will fold to the river raise.

$3 or a little less pre is fine.

I really don't mind this line too much, though I would probably raise flop, bet turn, shove river etc. Oh and 3bet pre is fine here but keeping his range wide isn't too bad either given he seems like a solid player

4handed i would rather 3bet allows you to play the hand easier in my opinion. look at how much thought you have to put into this hand after you flopped trip As, if you would have 3bet PF to about 3.50 he is dropping all of the SC and PP that your going to pay of sets with on a board with TPTK. getting all his junk hands out is good you have a strong hand but its not a monster hand and your only going to hit 30% of the time. remember aggressive play gives you 2 ways to win he could fold or you can actually take to pot at SD. if you would have 3bet PF the hand would have played itself. 3bet PF get it in on flop or turn.
