(5/T filled with medicore players)I am one off the button with J :D J:spade:.Loose-aggro guy who is UTG+3 raisesrandom guy 2 later cold callsi 3 betloose-aggro caps, random guy calls Flop J :) A :) T :D LA bets out, random folds, I raise, LA calls.Turn 4:heart:LA checks, I bet, LA calls.River Q:spade:LA checks.What do you do in this situation? My thoughts: I checked here, as I'm figuring this guy either has QQ or KK, most likely would have bet out with KK but could be going for the 'style points' :roll:. AK is a possibility but he probably would have gone a bit harder on the flop with TPTK + gutshot. So is AQ, assuming he would cap preflop with it. Since I don't think there's a 50% i still have the best hand here, I checked behind.My friend who is a solid player reads this guy for Ax and thinks I should bet the river. We have been debating it for the last X minutes. What are your thoughts?(Feel free to comment on my play of the rest of the hand if you are so inclined)PS: Sorry about the formatting, but I did what I can. Any suggestions on making it more readable are welcome.

i don't think I like three betting PF, eh, maybe maybe not. I do think that you can raise the turn and get a little more value out of it. I don't mind a check behind on the turn

I don't mind a check behind on the turnWhat?? And let one card straight draw for free and miss a big bet.?Please tell me I'm missing something..River check is fine, anything that can cap preflop has you beat now, AA AK, KK, QQ, even TT.
