I think i missed two opportunities to bet here! Firstly I should have bet the turn when it checks to me, right? Then, not having taken that opportunity, as played I should have bet the river hard no?

On the turn given the check and the extra equity id be betting a lot of the time. When you call the flop CB you need more ways to win than just hitting. And given yo turn a nut draw with a lot of outs its criminal not too, next time give V's stats too though it could shape things.

On the river i'm really not sure how often a bet gets through. What strength are you realistically repping? It'd stink of a whiffed draw. Against unthinking players this may be fine but against any that may be processing the action I think its risky.

I'm with Gabe on the turn, it's a bet, hoping to fold out the villains or hit on the river.

As played, checking the river is fine -- you have showdown value with the A and what lower calls?

Flop call is okay-ish. Would you raise here with AsTs? As played, bet turn. River check is fine as we beat all naked clubs and the only better hand we potentially fold out is 87.

I would often be raising with AsTs with the FD and two overs. Would you raising more often here with AcTc than calling?

To be honest, it's a "feel" spot for me, and depends on a lot of factors (stack size, villain, image, etc), but I think it's worth at least considering a raise here. It's good to think about what your ranges are for both flatting and raising, and thinking about how balanced they are.
