PREFLOP
CO limp 1bb, BTN ISO 3bb, Hero call, CO fold.

FLOP (Pot 7.5bb)
Hero check, BTN check.

TURN (Pot 7.5bb)
Hero bet 3/4, BTN call.

RIVER (Pot 18.50bb)
Hero check, BTN check.

What worse hands would call my bet river besides a flush with 2d, 4d, 5d and 6d? Anything else he folds anyway or beats my hand.

I should assume he would have Ax? When villain don't bet flop I believe he is capped at Ax on the river, otherwise he would bet for protection, right? What do you guys think?

No info about villain.

I would bet small for value and fold to a raise. They could have a better flush but I would expect some of those to lead. Bet what you think they would consider calling with an ace.

If you think there's a risk of being raised as a bluff by an ace then check, but I wouldn't expect that to happen often.

bet/fold is one of the biggest weapons on the river and a big leak of most of the micro/small stakes players

Probably bet super small. Fold pre. A8 is a trash hand, esp multiway against an iso raise.

How often does A8os win at showdown, rarely. Personally, I would fold pre flop (kickers matter to me). It got you in to a bad spot here lol
