Folding a big pot with A on board? 0.5/1- 6max

[McNemo]

When should i have folded? Dont think i had any stats but a feeling he is LP. I´m new to 6-max and have a constant feeling that everyone is playing back at me post flop. Its not like fullring at all.

ok, he calls - but this is the same player who called pre flop and coldcalled two back to him. i guessed he could call with other hand than Ace?
### TURN ### 5 Pot: 8.25
afreespirit bets 1
he donks the turn - wtf. he could have ace, two pair or he bets with a pair to see if i really have an ace?
Hero calls 1
- dont want to raise for free showdown. i want him to continue the bluff or lower pair value betting on river
### RIVER ### 3 Pot: 10.25
afreespirit bets 1
Hero calls 1
- how bad is this? the pot is big. (since it got capped pre i felt tied to the showdown... wrong thinking?)

I think your only viable choices are raising the turn (intending to fold to a raise) or call down. I can't fold on the turn, especially in a 6-max game.
I like raising the turn a little better, but it is not a draw heavy board (unless he has J10) so neither in my eyes is a terrible option.
