Generally hand is played fine. Usually when we spike the A on the turn we are planning to call down, but the club-river typically strengthens his range a lot and make it hard for .him to show up with bluffs. On a blank river we can just call, although we'd be folding the naked T by river if it doesn't improve. Can be worthing checking his stats etc, because if he hardly ever raises flop then we can sometimes even hero fold.

Think you played this one fine, as @w34z3l said above, making a hero fold on the flop or turn is also fine (not on this turn as the A spiked) but generally. Like your line and good fold, see too many people call here because 'I has two pair'.

I think I still call this down. I know that you are quite aggro so am allowing villain a bit of leeway in the bluffing. The A can give him top pair that he may value bet v you, jq miss and he can ofc have t9. The club is helpful for his range but ultimately won't strengthen it hugely unless he only continues OTT when he turns a FD... But not sure what hands that apply to, maybe GS+bdfd. I would say it is possibly more likely he bluffs this river than a blank also.

Folding flop or turn I would say is pretty shit as it's not a board many x/r for value on and a nutty turn to bluff on (well people think it is)

I would call this down once we hit top two versus an unknown.

Although he can still have sets you would expect him to slowplay a lot more frequently with no flush draw out there, and the positions make it more likely that his bluff frequency rises.

With the straight draws missing and part of his bluff range possibly being Ax calling can't really be horrible unless we've already pegged him as tight. If that is the case I'm probably getting away on the flop.
