I was playing in a 2/4 NL game and getting pushed around a bit. I was getting re-raised quite a bit and couldn't really take a stand because I generally had 7-high.

This specific player check-raised me on an Ac9cXc board earlier. I re-raised his c/r and he went over the top and I folded. He thinks I folded top two. I actually folded rags with no clubs.

In any case, I felt like people thought they could push me around.

He has 400 at the start of this hand. I have him covered.

He makes it 12 from the CO. I call with KsTc from the button. Everyone else folds.

Flop:

KcJc2s

He checks. I bet 20. He makes it 90. I call.

Turn:

Qc

He checks. I check.

River:

9h

He bets 100. Hero calls.

Does anyone hate the way I played this hand?

I'd fold preflop, but as played it looks good.

No I don't hate it, you made a stand on the flop with a decent hand.

On the turn your hand does get stronger, but a bet commits us to the hand. I don't mind checking here because we don't really have a good idea where we are in the hand and can get a free card with alot of probably outs.

Now on the river we hit the straight and he leads out. If you raise you pretty much have to put him all-in. What's he gonna call with that we can beat on this board? I don't see him calling without at least a straight, especially considering that you've been folding quite a bit to pressure.

Overall against an aggressive player who has been raising and check/raising me a lot I think I play it the same.

I like it given your image. On the flipside, because of your image, the river is obv. only a call
