I think your problem with check raising is that you are forced to turn your hand into a bluff 75% of the time on the river. Assuming it doesn't run a club you now have te initiative and have to play back or come across as really week ( I assume you have no check raising river range here). Which means you are better to just call and then bet out on the river on any club or q, j or 7

I raise flop instead of turn.

As played I probably just call turn and lead 7's, J's, Q's, and all clubs.

If you are c/ring this turn I think you have to follow threw on a lot of rivers but its tough. Also if he jams turn that's a disaster for you so I don't like raising turn here.

I think call the turn will be ok, and if there is no club in river, hero can still makie check raise bluff. But for a reg, I will like bluff the river.

Actually I will bet the flop,turn directly.

Blah, i think we should fold pre o 3bet this hand. We are OOP and have a lot of reverse implied odds against the UTG range, also when we 3bet BBvsUTG 120bbs efective he is going to 4bet with a very narrow range most of the time + we balance our 3bet range pre  bbVSutg. Asplayed ch/r flop is better imo

I'd choose between 3b and folding PF, not a big fan of calling with such a hand vs 20%.

I also think that XR the F is better. It's a dreally drawy board and not one that Villain is going to bluff barrel particularily often.

As played, how about leading T+R? I think that most of his range is now likely to XB, but might call a bet only to fold the R most of the time. I would also play all my sets/straights/2pairs this way in order to deny him free equity, which he is going to go for pretty often imo. I'd even consider overbetting the R if I do that, knowing that he's capped his range and my range is polarized.

a2s is not great to call, even though it has great equity against kk/aa, we can barely never feel comfortable playing on Axx and our kicker always is bottom pair, also, the straights that this hand makes are easily outdrawn. A3-A4-A5 are better because you can x/r gutter+ndfd more often. :D

as played, no reason to x/r ott since he increases the bet sizing and x/r K high boards against UTG range is not good
