That was a fairly big raise from the BN, so I don't expect He simply just isolated the CO. I put him on a strong range, thats why I just called to realise my postflop EQ.

Hero checks,
BN checks
when He checked behind the flop I became confused. I put him on slowplayed KK+, and AK.

Hero bets $1.75,
BN raises to $3.70,
Hero calls $1.95
I made a mistake with betting. Because He almost never has a backdoor flush draw, and if He bets, He started to earn value with his slowplayed monsters. However, after He checked behind the flop, He doesn't have FE anymore, so He probably tries to get to showdown with his AQ-AK type hands.
Anyway, that was a really interesting hand for me. Please tell me something about this party
Thank You!!

given positions i prefer a 4b pre...that might look strong but ppl tend to overplay this specific spot pre and you might get bluffshoved by a crushed hand
as played i think betting turn for value is fine, therefore some stuff that he just gave up OTF picked up equitey...
Not sure what to make of his raise tbh....I guess im makin the wtf-call, too even though we´re toast by his valuerange....
river is ugyl, cauze i dont expect a reg to keep on bluffing with 1/2 PSB...
4betting this hand given those positions is still okay. You will be surprised how often 'tight' players still show up with random hands - which is good for them given their perceived image.
I prefer a turn check/raise rather than a bet/call, if you wanting to play more aggressively postflop.
i'm surprised he doesnt bet KK+ OTF here, since your hand looks like 99-QQ a lot of the time, so he will get value by simply betting.
His hand is looking more like a light 3bet that now outflopped you. So that your preflop assumptions were inaccurate.
you do have showdown versus his worse overcards, so check/calling turn is best. the turn check/raise is more for some leveling versus some opponents.
What do you rep when x/r turn? And what does his range looks like to you when he bets that makes you want to x/r?
i'm trying to get villain to spaz with AK/AQ/overcards/overcards+FD. If he did 3bet light and has made a weak pair then i can get that to fold by the river.
but yes it does seem a bit FPS, i like a check/call best
i like 4betting preflop best
I would 4B pre and big vs this 3b size.
Turn bet is not huge mistake as you protect your hand vs small equity he has with his air type hands, but i`d prefer x/c.
River is meh, kinda close.Your range is capped and if he`s even semi solid hand reader he`ll be jaming this river 100%.
Anyway I could avoid this kinda sick situation by 4betting pre. Thank You!
@hustla, although our range is capped by the river (not really since we might have TT) villain should still think it is JJ/QQ/AKss/AQss and trying to bluff that range is bad.
@Alex, I agree with everyone else, 4b or fold pre, if you dont 4bet its because you think his range is too strong so playing vs that in a bloated pot oop when the CO is still to act can't be good.
I would x/c the turn as played, x/r'n seems to accomplish nothing apart from getting coolered by TT and slowplayed JJ+ and we beat all of his bluffs, I think its unlikely you get bluffed on river since we still look like JJ/QQ at that point and if he does bluff it likely will be on a spade/A/K = happy times.
