Villain was a bit loose, saw him bet his hands when he made them, only got to see his cards in a few pots...

Seat 2: WhippedPuppy ($32 in chips)
Seat 3: HERO [AH,AS] ($91.75 in chips)
Seat 4: kicks44 ($52.50 in chips)
Seat 5: teleskier ($85 in chips)
Seat 7: surfbumdj ($98.50 in chips)
Seat 8: ak1211 ($64 in chips)
Seat 9: grandpajay ($100 in chips)
Seat 10: gelvis ($98.50 in chips)

ANTES/BLINDS
happydood posts blind ($0.50), WhippedPuppy folds, HERO posts blind ($1).

PRE-FLOP

HERO bets $8, grandpajay calls $8.

TURN [board cards 2H,8C,KH,7D ]
HERO bets $20, grandpajay calls $20.

RIVER [board cards 2H,8C,KH,7D,6D ]
HERO bets $20, grandpajay calls $20.

SHOWDOWN

HERO shows [ AH,AS ]
grandpajay mucks cards [ 10D,KD ]
HERO wins $111.50.


I was considering just calling preflop, but thought I'd raise because he had position. After the call on the flop I put him on a heart draw, TPTK, or mayyyybe a set/2 pair - although I think he would have re-raised me based on his previous play. I think he would've re-raised KK preflop.

The whole way I was betting around 1/2 of the pot until the river, so it might have appeared weak which could have induced an AI that I'm not sure if I could call. I wanted to bet something though, because I did think I had the best hand. I was just worried that this guy was trickier than I gave him credit for and was holding 2 pair, or quite loose with a str8 (9h Th).


EDIT:

This hand happened with the same person a few orbits earlier and I was looking for comments. After my flop bet got called, I went into check/die mode. Should I have kept up the aggression? I didn't have reads at the time, so I think it's a good laydown.

Is 8 dollars your standard flop bet?

My continuation bet is usually around 2/3rds of the pot.

I'm beginning to think that I need to have a better read on my opponents in situations like this... in this case I didn't have too much of a chance to get a good read. Smooth calls like this AKo hand unnerve me.
