Hello again!
Do I need to adjust the bet sizing on the flop and turn?
How do I react to the donk bet shove on that river? I'm sure you've all been in this spot quite a few times.
Pff... Pocket aces have been killing me lately. Lost a bunch of stacks over the last few thousand hands, I question my playing ability. Could I be folding tight here?

I think you played it fine. I might bet turn a bit bigger though. Villain has 99 and QQ in his range as well as AKs so I think it is safer to fold to a donk shove when the flush completes.

I think it is ok and you do not have to make more adjustments.

No, you're bet sizes seem fine here. Pretty good fold on the river.

I would bet slightly more on OTT, but that's pretty much down to your playing style. No adjustment needed. Good fold, but not the easiest.

bet sizings problem .. nothing else expect pot flop shove turn or over bet flop .. this positions only calling ranges pre vs mosts nit regs are a pair we win -- not much AK in his range when AA is our holding too . .

his preflop play look like AQ+,99-QQ.

as he play flop i highly doubt that he would call with AQ or AK or backdoor FD.

ill assume he will have set of nines or queens most of time.

Many players like to call on flop with a bunch of fancy stuff, including BDFD.

i can agree with that statement nitrol but i think that is very small percentage of players.
