nl10 zoom: TT

Blinds: $0.05/$0.10 (6 Players) BN: $9.67
SB: $4.69
BB: $15.98
UTG: $9.54
MP: $11.21 (Hero)
CO: $14.73
no reads
Preflop ($0.15) Hero is MP with T T
UTG folds, Hero raises to $0.35, 3 folds, BB calls $0.25
open size is a little bigger because of the ante
Flop ($0.81) A 3 9
BB checks, Hero bets $0.25, BB calls $0.25
Great flop for my range, I'm c-betting all my range here against BB 1/3 pot size.
Turn ($1.31) A 3 9 5
BB checks, Hero checks
I'm continuing betting here with top pair second kicker + and bluffs. For bluffs I choose K high flush draws(6c): KQo, KJo plus straight draws (8c): 87s, 76s. I would choose 2/3 bet size.
TT are in my checking range
River ($1.31) A 3 9 5 T
BB bets $0.45, Hero raises to $1.30, BB raises to $5.15, Hero calls $3.85
my range on river: KK-TT, 88-66, 44, 22, AJs-ATs, A8s-A6s, A4s, A2s, KsTs+, KhTh+, KdTd+, QsTs+, QhTh+, QdTd+, Js9s+, Jh9h+, Jd9d+, Ts9s, Th9h, Td9d, 9s8s, 9h8h, 9d8d, AJo-ATo, KhQs, KdQs, KdQh, KdQc, KsQh, KsQc, KsQd, KhQc, KhQd, KhJs, KdJs, KdJh, KdJc, KsJh, KsJc, KsJd, KhJc, KhJd

he bets the river. I think his range here with this size is pretty wide, top pair + and some low SV hands as bluffs.

I'm calling here with my top pairs, JJ-KK and some weak two pairs: KK-JJ, AJs, A8s-A6s, A4s, A2s, Ts9s, Th9h, Td9d, AJo
and raising with the strongest 2pair and a set: AT, TT. I'm not sure if should have some bluffs here ,maybe some hand with Q of clubs that blocks some of his flush combos.

He 3bets, I'm not sure what to do. If I should have a calling range here then TT would be it. But they're pretty much bluff catchers since villain isn't value 3betting here with hands worse than a flush imo. I guess the question here is if villain can 3bet bluff this river.
What would be the standard play here?
Final Pot BB wins and shows a flush, Ace high.
BB wins $11.09
Rake is $0.52

Overall I think I played this hand quite well, I'm not sure about the river tho.
Your thoughts?
Thanks:)

Well played up until the river call. No1 bluff like that at micros.

That's true, it should be a fold, but you mentioned to me in the other thread to start working on my default(gto) strategy.
What would the gto play be without any player pool reads?
Not having a calling range makes me exploitable, he could just bluff me every time since I'm never calling, right? If thats so then I think I should be calling with top of my range, in this hand TT.

I'm not using any solvers but I say what I've learned so far and dont know if its even 50% right. In theory you should x back that turn often enough if you cbet range, because villain has more flushes than you. And you should x back some flushes too because if you dont your x range is in great danger OTR. And because you x back some flushes a set its not your top range and you can fold a set when he 3bets because like zinom1 said "no1 bluffs like that at micros", and call with flushes.

Checking few flush combos on the turn makes sense. That would make my range on the river stronger and easier to play against his raise.

Until I see a showdown with this player, I would just call river usually. If he is value betting 2pr+, we are a dog vs that range (@ 42% or so, will have lower with the non-club TT).

I think it is a stretch to assume a tight pool is going to bet/call their worst top pair combos (they aren't that strong here). I think the worst value bet he/she has is 2 pair here on river.

Being the pool can be passive, I don't hate raising river here but I think we have to fold this part of our range when we get raised here. He can potentially have enough folds + worse calls vs a small raise. You will have plenty of flushes to call with here vs a bet/3b4et. I think you never have straights here since I assume you aren't opening as wide as 42s from HJ. We probably have 15+ flushes here so dumping this combo is probably fine vs this river line.

The way I played I'm left without flushes on the river, so TT are my strongest hand. I didn't put any flushes in my turn checking range it's seemed like I would be missing value checking with them. Was that a mistake?
