Sure we don't need to be right that often, but honestly how often do you believe he bets under half pot with something worse.

I am not certain about this but I would probably either go c/c or c/R with my entire range in this spot, as this flop pretty much smashes villains calling range.

Looks good. Pretty easy x/f on river imo.

Everything gets there otr. Very few bluffs left for villain to bluff with. You block the KJ and the KT gutters with which he might call twice and then bluff river but you don't block any of his value-range except KQ.
Your bluff-catchers here are AQ and QK/QJ and JTs.

his bluffs in this spot would be JJ/TT, and folding KK here gives these combos a massively +ev bluff on river. That said, I am not calling here, unless I respect my opponents play.

I dont expect the player pool to be tricky enough to say: " I can bet TT so he folds AA or KK as he never has trips or better when he checks the river. " Altough your thought is obviously on a higher level and it would be extremly profitable against a SOLID! villain to bluff for only 40% pot here.
