Call preflop, i have double suited hand + i can catch nice str8 draws/two pairs. So my hand play not bad vs. Aces.

Bet turn obviously? My check looks pretty lame here, especially when i saw showdown...

No issues with preflop.

Flop is perfect for a cbet from villain. I would expect most players to be betting this flop quite wide and I would be going for a checkraise pretty much always. Let's see how we do on this flop against a set of aces...

board: Ad Td 6h

Kd Jd Qc 7c 46.39%
AA** 53.61%

So this is the worst case scenario for your hand. Yep that's right you're just the slightly wrong side of a coin flip. So with this in mind, this is definitely a flop to be checkraising full pot as you have a lot of fold equity and even if villain has missed this flop, he should be betting at it.

The turn check is interesting. When villain checks back this flop he pretty much never has a flush draw. We also know he doesn't have a set for the same reason, so he has total air. With that in mind I like the turn check, all you are going to win money from is a bluff (even if the board pairs on the river i am certain you will be good if villain checks the turn back).

As for the river, I think you have to bet big here. Either villain has rivered a straight (or has a 5 high flush) and might make a crying call or he just has nothing at all and will fold no matter what you bet.

All in all, you played it fine and the only way you could have made money post flop...
