Spoiler

Hero shows a pair of aces(A:s Q:d).
MP3 shows a pair of aces(6:d A:d).

Hero wins with a pair of aces(A:s Q:d).

Wasn't sure about this one. He's 62/4 and passive. I thought that when he raises flop he has more 2p+ than just a pair of aces and I didn't want to valueown myself. He might call with any ace on the river though.

What is the default play here on the river against a whale without much info?

Ya, whale's are definitely always an obstacle. It's difficult to range them, but TP is usually pretty nutted versus their calling range.

He had that little spazz on the flop, but bet/folding river is best I think.
