    Default aq vs fish and aggressive resistance, river two pair, but...

    illain is 41-10 after close to 100 hands. Range is most aces/sets/AK/diamond draw/TJ/JQ after the flop and turn action. River check call as standard, or am i missing too much value?

    SB ($100)
    Hero (UTG) ($107.65)
    UTG+1 ($93.50)
    MP1 ($100)
    MP2 ($190.50)
    MP3 ($107.10)
    CO ($16.85)
    Button ($98.20)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG with A, Q
    2 folds, MP2 calls $1, 1 fold, CO calls $1, 2 folds, Hero raises to $4.50, MP2 calls $3.50, 1 fold

    Flop: ($10.50) A, K, 4 (2 players)
    Hero bets $8, MP2 calls $8

    Turn: ($26.50) 3 (2 players)
    Hero bets $11, MP2 raises to $22, Hero calls $11

    Why did you bet so small on the turn? I still probably b/f river unless he's really aggro.

    perverse pot control, betting small here works best

    I'll let others chime in here since you know more than me in FR but I guess at 6max I'd fire a pretty decent amount on the turn. I guess it's better than checking but I'd still fire more.

    preflop action is screwed up, are you the BB?

    Your preflop raise size is weaksauce.

    Your turn bet is weak, we still beat a lot and we want to charge him for his flush draws. If you were betting to induce a raise from a draw then it's kinda gross because it's an epic pot control fail and we're oop so we could just be talking ourselves into calling a large river bet when we're screwed.

    I think i would bet half pot/fold here, I think that is better than c/c especially if you were planning to c/c a psb.

    you should bet more on the turn.

    I like $6 preflop and $18-20 on the turn.

    Depending on what you have seen from him to this point couldn't you discount JT and JQ postflop or at least after the turn? I would discount AK pre too--AK ought to be open-raising PF.
