cbet or not ? He has all sort of KQ, KJ hands in his range. 88-QQ are not folding to a cbet either. If I cbet, he calls with at least some A high hands, TP (KQ, KJ), QQ-88. OTT, an A isnt very good for my range, and I cant really bet on a blank unless im planning on 3barelling to make him fold his PPs ..
However, I have AK, KQ, some low Kxs, AA in my range here. I'd definetely cbet AK, KQ + some A high (with backdoor draw) and A5s, A4s (semi bluff/protection) and I could check AA and the worse Kx hands to balance for QQ-99.
All that being said, I think its a check here with JJ !
Thoughts ?

will depend on villain, but ch/c seems good, espcially since the flop is bone dry
what would be the plan on the turn on
a) an A ?
b) a blank card ?
Maybe I should also have some good Ax hand in my flop c/c range and c/f them on a blank turn, but c/c again with TP+.. That would make me fold a lot of hand OTT tho..
a) I would ch/f, since its likely he has connected with the board.
b)I think it will dpend on how aggro villain is, hard to say really.
Yea I think you can ch/c here sometimes, with hands like A2,A3,A4,A5
c/f JJ? does that mean u c/f 99 TT and QQ too? thats a lot of hands, and definitely exploitable
"I'd definetely cbet AK, KQ + some A high (with backdoor draw) and A5s,

to balance for QQ-99." - it seems to me that it makes more sense to bet AA and check AK, since AA doesn't block TP combos and makes it more likely for him to have a PP that he is going to call you with at least once.
that's right. Didnt think about that, but it make sens. Its always important to check the blockers in spot like that.
Yes you need a plan, but if you were the other person you would cbet this flop 99% of the time yea? So i'd have to check/call here and see the turn and re evaluate. I Would say your going to have to make a decision based on history
Like Whipman, said, good to have some Kx in our ch/c range, forgot to mention that
You'll see a lot of people by default playing this both ways (b/f or x/c) so this kinda says that it's pretty close.
Fwiw on such a disconnected board texture the protection is less important so I'd even further lean towards x/c.
do you agree with the overal strategy here (continuation range, folding range, etc.) ? because I agree with you that its close between c/c or b/f, but maybe there is an option that is easier to balance. When you have a good plan, its always easier to stick with the strategy.
Having an exploitably small c/calling range but at the same time having an overall small checking range is def. easiest to play with.
I x/c the flop.
and then, OTT ?
Probably x/f a lot of turns against unknowns.
