50NL - Value bet, Check behind, Value Shove? 50NL - Value bet, Check behind, Value Shove?

So I'm down about 6 buy ins at this point in my session, so I switch gears to a much more aggressive/spewy type of play. Someone mentions something to me and I look at the lobby. All my tables have massive waiting lists. I lol, but it doesn't bother me, I guess I'm the fish today. Aware of the image that I've developed, I am starting to value bet super thin and it is working with mixed results.

The following hand comes up. The villain is someone who just sat at my table that has a waiting list of +6 people. I assume he is just going to peddle the nuts against me and hope I bluff off my chips.
Poker Stars $0.25/$0.50 No Limit Hold'em - 6 players
The Official 2+2 Hand Converter Powered By DeucesCracked.com

MP: $77.30
CO: $133.75
Hero (BTN): $60.45
SB: $56.00
BB: $147.85
UTG: $526.00

Pre Flop: ($0.75) Hero is BTN with A Q
3 folds, Hero raises to $1.50, 1 fold, BB calls $1

Flop: ($3.25) A 8 7 (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $3, BB calls $3

Turn: ($9.25) 7 (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $8, BB calls $8

River: ($25.25) Q (2 players)
BB checks, [color=red]Hero...

Basically, I think I can value bet a small-medium amount and get paid off by pretty marginal hands, I can check behind and hope I can win, or I can over bet shove and hope I get called by worse.

I went over the decision about 6 times and the one I picked I am happy with, without giving too much away, what would you do here?

I would bet 1/2 to 3/4 pot for value.

lol at your description.

down 6BI you start getting more aggressive. thats a sure fire way to lose 10BI in a session :P

i think you have played it fine, i would bet around 15 on the river.

probably of just made it 15 and called it off.Hes repping such a small range here if he shoves over your value bet. overbets work sometimes but i dont really think in this situation unless u know villian will call you down with worse.

stats?

I probably over bet here....
Given your described table image i cant imagine they have much respect for your bets
So i might try and make it look like im buying the pot

I check, I just don't see anything you are ahead of calling here unless he is a total fish which I can't assume without a read.

i disagree. any Ax is calling which is huge part of his range.
hell even Qx that thinks its calling down a bluff will call easily.

I bet 20 but if he shoves we're in a crappy spot. Given your image I dont think he's check/shoving anything you beat. AK probably not in his range and even if it was...

I shoved, he snapped with 78, but I still like my play. I'm pretty sure anything he's going to call on the river with he'll call a shove, and I am paying off a check raise on the river.
