    this is definitely a fold.

    Im wondering if you could have played it different earlier. I think b/f the turn is better than this line, but I'm not really sure, and look forward to other ppls comments.

    river has to be a c/f as whats he going to bet for value that you call and beat?
    If opp bet $10 on river you might be making a ~ev/+ev play if you call but i doubt it.

    What might his range be to call 4bb pre flop. Maybe Good ace AK,AQ, AJ. A number of pairs looking to hit a set and not a lot else besides perhaps some big suited connectors.
    By the river how much of this can you beat ? the pairs will only be betting if they made a set. AK made a straight probably the only hand that is in my range, goes with the betting and you beat is AQhearts. I would fold

    A turn bet doesn't accomplish a whole lot since the only reasonable pair we beat that may call is KJ. A bet is better if the turn is a 7 since a couple more pairs may continue. I still don't like it, though. The Q bringing the gutshot doens't help much since it's mainly a pot saver, and won't bring much additional value.

    I prefer to check turn since we're underrepping our hand, and this makes it easier to get one more street of value from a worse pair. If villian is good enough to know we don't have a 9, and good enough to know how to rep hands (not too likely) he'll raise the turn or double barrel the turn/river with something we beat. Since everybody loves to cbet, our range is quite wide from the flop, yet most of which wont see a showdown if it means we gotta pay out the ass.
