BB: $281.13
UTG: $241.00
Hero (MP): $203.00

Pre Flop: ($3.00) Hero is MP with A♥ A♦
1 fold, Hero raises to $6, 2 folds, SB raises to $18, 1 fold, Hero calls $12

Flop: ($38.00) K♦ 9♣ 6♣ (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $18.14, SB calls $18.14

Turn: ($74.28) Q♥ (2 players)
SB checks, Hero checks

River: ($74.28) 5♠ (2 players)
SB bets $80.00, Hero ?

Opponent is 23/20/10, 3bets 10% vs MP, fold to 4bet 71% (5 out of 7 times), flop cbet 60% (50% in 3bet pots).

I just wonder if there's any room for folding. My plan is to snap all bets up too pot on river since my hand is massively underrepped. But IMO from his POV, I either call with KX or I fold, regardless of his bet sizing. So he should be overbetting slightly above pot with his monsters (KQ/QQ/KK) to go for max value vs my AK/KJs.

I cannot think of a bluff which plays in this manner. So it boils down to whether he valuebets a worse hand in this manner. I also can't really think of any (I think AK bets flop and even if he somehow checks AK he wouldn't overbet it on the River, given that I would have KQ much more often than KJ though I can't have it after checking Turn)

If you call AA, are you calling AK? Are you calling KJs?

I fold; Don`t expect him to valuebet worse OTR especially after 3bet c/c flop. He`s not polarized at all so we don`t really have a bluffcatcher. We block Ax and he will probably cbet any Ac and never turn As into a bluff OTR so this will mostlikely be something like QQ

I'm b/folding turn here and then checking back the river. As played, I'm calling that river bet. If u don't call AA here I think u're folding 100% because I can't think of any better hand. This is good spot for him to turn something like JJ or 9x into a bluff. When u check back that turn I think he puts u on something like QJs,AQ. Maybe he expects u to 4bet AK , so ur range is Qx heavy from his point of view.

It improves KQ/QQ, I think he rarely has something like KJ or AK, he folds JJ and worse hands. He may/may not have random KXs but he's OOP so I think he might not have too many of those types of hand. I also don't really think I have 3 streets against such hands.
