I was about to post on this but I realise that I can't see the suits until I get home.

Assuming there are no flushes on baord then -

1) Go All-in
2) Call as it is a weak but suspicious bet.
3) Call, but don't like it.

A I check behind.
B I call.
C I'm undecided but leaning towards a fold.

I'm finding it hard to put him on a hand here. His check call flop/lead turn line is really confusing.

Same here, although I might call C here sometimes (maybe like 10-20% of the time).... Depending on how the table had been playing... (I assume it wasn't the first hand based on the fact that you have more than the Max buy-in...)

Different story. He leads on a flush card on the turn, so obviously you have to be cautious on the river, but since he called preflop and without the Ad or Kd the only hand he can have that beats you is JTd or the like. Since he leads on the turn for 3/4 pot there is two possible reasons.

1. He thinks you don't have flush as the Ad is on the board and you would have to have led with KQd/QJd etc to have hit, and he is betting to drive you out. If he does this on turn and river then it is hard for you to call him with AK.
2. He has the flush.

I think caution is the best approach here, so check behind if he checks. If he bets the river then it is likely he has the flush (I am not contemplating him having a house). I may call the 1/4 pot bet, but I would likely not unless I had a reason to and since you don't know his play then a fold is the sensible option.

1. Check
2. Fold (just)
3. Fold

Lads, in situation 1 where villain checks the river...

If the stacks were deeper, would anybody recommend a bet of about $70, obviously folding to a check raise but hoping for a crying call from AJ/AQ?

We would be splitting with AQ/AJ - the board is dbl paired.

Yeah Villian checked, I thought about betting as I felt there was a good chance he had a worse ace, but I chickened out and checked behind. Villian tabled A9o. Easy Money.
