I was playing earlier today and wasn't sure if my execution of this hand was totally correct:
Poker Stars $0.01/$0.02 No Limit Hold'em - 5 players
DeucesCracked Poker Videos Hand History Converter

BB: $2.94
UTG: $3.60
Hero (CO): $2.00
BTN: $2.06
SB: $3.74

Pre Flop: ($0.03) Hero is CO with A A
UTG calls $0.02, Hero raises to $0.06, BTN calls $0.06, 1 fold, BB calls $0.04, UTG calls $0.04

Flop: ($0.25) 3 K 9 (4 players)
BB checks, UTG bets $0.10, Hero raises to $0.24, BTN folds, BB calls $0.24, UTG calls $0.14

Turn: ($0.97) 9 (3 players)
BB checks, UTG bets $0.10, Hero raises to $0.48, BB calls $0.48, UTG calls $0.38

River: ($2.41) Q (3 players)
BB bets $1, UTG folds, Hero calls $1

Spoiler:
Final Pot: $4.41
BB shows Th Jh (a straight, Nine to King)
Hero mucks As Ad
BB wins $4.26
(Rake: $0.15)


I was playing in position and had stats on villian of 43/0 over 53 hands (which i know isn't a lot). I was wondering if my bet size was too small on the river; should i have bet something more on the lines of 0.70 just for fat value? I just need some re-assurance on whether i played the hand as it should have been played and what you guys would have done given the situation.

Thankyou in advance!!!!

Would raise turn bigger but I like it otherwise, I think raising river is a bit thin although we do beat kq but I just call anyway.

Raise more preflop vs the limper utg.

Bet more on turn.

Raise to at least $0.08 preflop, raise to at least $0.30 on flop, I would ship the turn, purely because he has led into you twice when you have shown aggression on every street so far so if he bets the river you are priced in to call so get it all in on the turn and price him out.

I was constantly raising with 0.06 so i didnt want to suddenly represent something big by changing my preflop raise from the norm, so i thought it was a valid way of masking the strength of my hand, also as his stats indicated he was playing very fishy so really wanted him to play the pot.

I think u guys are right i probably wasnt as agressive as i should have been, in hiens sight i should have probably played a bet of about 80-90% of the pot at turn and then shipped.

Actually aorry about the previous comment, i should have raised more to price out the limper!! That way giving a motive for the raise rather than just to represent the strength of the hand.

So something like 0.08--->0.90--->shipping it, (assuming exactly the same bets from the villain.)
