AK, two pairs on R, complete FD

you should have big range advantage would bet 1/3 flop, besides that I would jam the river, I think villain is going to have a-lot of Ace's that you have beat that will probably call, the flush is a small percentage of his range to worry about IMO. if he had 99 here it would be a setup

Push to river to get value from Ax weaker two pairs if he has the flush you would not x/f anyway with 0.5 SPR and top two pair. I like the sizings too, I would not do this 1/3 pot bet mentioned by Casey above. It is NL5, if they have an ace they will call you down most likely, and in that case you want to play for stacks.

I would bet bigger on the flop on order to setup a shove on the turn if the flush draw misses.

As played I think we check the river in order to induce bluffs and get value from Ax hands the villain is defending with.

Shooshte, how are we getting value from villains Ax hands if we check the river? Also what bluffs does villain have here when clubs comes in on the river?

hello.... I think you should go all in... in this spot...

I would bet a bit more on the flop (66%~75% of the pot). At this limits, they will certainly pay with Ax or draw.
I liked your line, on the river i would push, as said above the flush is a small percentage of his range. Unless you have specific stats/notes from him

if we know that villain is a bluffer or bets a lot on the river in position after a check, don't you think this is a good spot for that? He could precisely simulate the flush.

People don’t bluff often enough on the river, the way the hand played out villain has many aces in his range and flush small part of time. People don’t go for crazy river bluffs after hero has bet heavy on all 3 streets showing nothing but strength
