V rather tight after 50 hands 19/11/9, main target was to play on PF fold equity liking my blockers here and his range being wide. My thinking might be totally off then but while playing this hand OTF I thought I have to barrel 2 or 3 times here after V calls PF (2 against AK, 3 against mid-highish PP if I even get a fold) seeing that 4B calling ranges are very tight at theses stakes. OTT J sucks as it hits V's 4B calling range quite well (JJ/AJs) and 99/TT/QQ still don't go anywhere. OTR, is this a call to look up A5s etc?

smallish sample which makes me feel kind of meh about this spot, too.
But i guess if you want some FE pre, you should be sizing up (maybe this is the key here). So i would go to maybe like 2.8-3 bugs pre.
Given your small 4betsizing and Villain raising a linear range i guess there will be about 100% of his 3betting-range going to the flop.
And this range will contain not too many 6x. So i guess cbetting smallish here to make him fold his broadways, unimproved SCs (QTs or so) and weaker Ax-combos should be ok....

as played: folding river looks fine. Dont see players using this sizing as a bluff given the line too often...

Cheers, yeah I guess sizing up PF is key here and AP to barrel OTF. Might be derailed by my OOP PF 4B with 2,5x getting so many folds that I sized em down too much IP.
