Villian was a 56/5 internet pro who clearly thinks a pair of Aces is the nuts, even when I bet the flop into 4 opponents. Kicker? Who needs a stinking kicker? Good times.

Looks like I missed a value bet on the river here. I checked in order to pick off a bluff by a busted flush. BTW, can anyone explain the mindset of the villian when he called the flop and the turn bets?
