I thought he could laydown an overpair on this board. Bigger river bet?? Shove??

wait, what? look at results

Oh, converter messed it up. Villain called and won with AA with the A of diamonds.

i would call that river bet with AA a lot.

might be better off checking behind on the turn. things turned out well on the flop since the two players behind you folded. take the card that your OOP call has earned. especially since your draw improved, slightly.

$50 is a lot better than $49

no, I'm not joking

The only conceivable bet that would work is an overbet, possibly an allin.
Preflop is fine versus a tight opponent, but I think this flop is some big spew. After he calls the turn, his hand is faceup (a big pair) and isn't folding to your bet.

ok, it's not A LOT better, but it is better.

Yea, if you want him to fold, shoving is your only option here.

I agree an unnecessary spew.
