Blinds battle with big stacks.
I call IP with a suited AQ and I flop a very strong draw. I want to play the flop aggressively as I have 16 outs to the nuts and I'm in position.
SB calls the raise and seems to have something.
On the turn I hit a queen, but I decide to check behind for the free card. I'm not sure if 2nd barrel would be better here.
I'm missing at the river and it's even a very bad card, because I think there might be some jacks in his range. I would like to check down this hand, but I'm confronted with a river bet. It's just 50% of the pot, but is my hand good enough for a call?
