    Default Couple hands I had trouble with today

    I have been playing rather tight on this table as I've been card dead. Showing like 14/12 in the HUD. I have history with both villains who probably consider me to be a TAG semi-reg who is pretty straight forward if not a little spewy. CO probably recognizes me less than BU.
    CO is TAG reg who is probably one of the bigger winners at PokerStars 100NL. I usually see him play tight and straight forward, but today he is either catching cards or playing looser. He is usually 20/18 but more like 28/22 today over about 50 hands.
    BU is aggro TAG(26/21/1.8). 3bets light but I don't have that much post-flop history on him.

    This felt so weak, but I think the flat calls show too much strength.

    Button ($113.55)
    SB ($108.05)
    BB ($100)
    Hero ($113.60)
    MP ($43.75)
    CO ($106.10)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG with A, A.
    Hero raises to $4, MP calls $4, CO calls $4, Button calls $4, SB calls $3.50, 1 fold.

    Flop: ($21) 9, 6, 9 (5 players)
    SB checks, Hero bets $15, MP folds, CO calls $15, Button folds, SB calls $15.

    Turn: ($66) 7 (3 players)
    SB checks, Hero checks, CO bets $32, SB calls $32, Hero folds




    I got lost on the river as far as value betting and where I am? Most bets commit me.
    SB seems tight passive over small sample ~17/13
    BU is bad loose fish like 60/9/1.3

    1) who's the co? I think I'd call turn and see river. But folding turn isn't too bad I don't think.

    2) I'd probably shove for value. I think pair+fd is the biggest chunk of their ranges. You really should be betting bigger on turn like 33ish so you can auto shove any non diamond river.

    1. good.
    2. yeah shove it in for value. besides a straight that got there they probably would have raised better earlier but they dont always do that ofcourse but overall shove is best i think, let the donk make a bad call.
