can u explain?

my thinking was that passive ppl sometimes c/c the flop with AQ/AK, and the second ace is good for him either way.
The guy seemed kinda tight, and i raised UTG. I highly doubt he'd cold call this flop with AK or AQ. The first Ace could have given him two pair, and the 2nd a fullhouse but i really doubt that because of his line.

I felt like the 2nd barrel was pretty bad because an overpair is calling anyway, since it's a good two barreling spot for me. And the 2nd Ace was that bad of a card, considering that my river bet makes a lot more sense with trip aces than it does with a bare Ace. It's also hard to showdown with JJ-88 on that board.

I'm not saying that the third barrel was +EV, i think it was marginal, but it was definitely better than the other bets in this hand.

hand 2 i think is horrible
This blog is for discussion, not yes or no or bad or good.

Hand 3 Is not that bad but I probably dont bet the flop. What was this guys fold to cbet %?
I didn't check at the time, i need to get used to looking at those. I probably wouldn't base any of my decision on it though unless it was exceptionally high or low.
