are you snap calling this river? Ruled out AK, as I think he would have got it in pre or on flop and turn...

so by river put him on flush draw or AJ /A10, But I think he checks behind with these 2 hands?

Fold.... although this is the kind of spot i always call and lose.

Tending towards this. Think its a call

A9 is a distinct possibility.

I'm almost always folding this. Looks like two pair or a missed flush, but hard to tell which.

Made the call and turned out to be AJ.. literally half a second left on timer lol

couldnt understand his shove, id be checking behind there! dont know if he was betting for value (me having weaker ace) not sure.

What a strange play.

He's only going to get called by a better hand unless he thinks you're a fish.

Turning a hand with decent showdown into a bluff. Hmmm.

Only reason i can think of is that he thinks that your check on the river looks weak as you have led the whole way but the bet sizing doesn't make sense if he is going for value? hmmm strange
