I should've probably folded pre.

Not topped up because playing on mobile, I only top up <90bb, too inconvienient.

I decided to not have a raising range on this board.

5nl stars is infested with weak regs (including me). <5% are actually decent, most are slightly losing regs with tons of leaks. Among these weak regs a population tendency is to rarely triple barrel for bluffs or thin value. Based on that read, I figured I show be donking rivers polarized in these sorts of spots.

If this seems good, my questions are:

-> What would be a good size? (I was thinking 1/2-2/3 pot to get value from top pairs)
-> Should I be imbalanced towards value or bluffs or neither?
-> Do I just choose bluff combos that best block folding range and not block calling range?
