I'm not moaning about this beat - although it is very annoying just want people to see if they would have played this any differently? This was very early on so gave this guy a bit of credibility and assumed maybe two premium cards or a mid pair. After the river I was pretty confident they were holding anything from 77-1010. Obviously one the Ace comes i've slowed down but even still after the previous calls couldn't put this player on an ace, thinking why would they be calling on that board with a possible ak/aq/aj etc.

Yeah he should have folded, but fact is weak players often won't fold an ace to one bet on the flop, and then they pick up a gutshot and they see that as good too. They don't consider that its very unlikely to happen, they just call thinking it might well happen etc.
Forgetting sizing on flop - which if leading I would also go slightly bigger, being 240ish - question for me is whether or not to bet flop. Would depend on our general c-bet % and what we think table image we have, but I may just check this one back. Hard to get called by much and if our c-bet % is low we turn our hand range faceup. But as long as we have cultivated right image its a joyous c-bet
Turn: as played bet size is fine. If we did let the card come off for free we have to bet now, even if its just to make oppo wig out and do something dumb.
River: just a sigh. If we have reads saying he might ship a bluff here I might check to snap call. Weird double barrel floats get there, but its just a gross card obv. Not sure bout the blocker/value line. Just sigh.
I mean its hard to have a c/f mentality believing he has just stationed you with A'high, when a tonne of 1pr and weaker OP's are in his range...just sigh lol.
