NL400 SH: c/r TPGK vs aggressive BU

BN: 531.43
SB: 511.33 (Hero)
BB: 2007.50
CO: 366
BN is a LAG, playing 32/27 (BU open 70%, could be up to 90 or even more, because of the big whale in the BB)
fold cbet vs raise: 50%
cbet flop 78% / turn 61% / river 50%
AF% flop 63% / turn 57% / river 37%
WTSD: 23 /W$WSF: 48
is very aggressive, folds almost nothing to cbets and 2nd barrels, threebets and fourbets much, squeezes much, can do stuff like a lot of cold4betting or overbetting vs capped ranges, ...
Preflop (6) (4 Players)
Hero was dealt Q K
CO folds, BN raises to 10, Hero calls 8, BB folds
Flop (24) 6 5 K (2 Players)
Hero checks, BN bets 14, Hero raises to 49.30, BN calls 35.30
Turn (122.60) 6 5 K 2 (2 Players)
Hero bets 84.07, BN calls 84.07
River (290.74) 6 5 K 2 T (2 Players)

First hand here, hope everything works....

My default play in this spot is to 3bet against this guy pre, but because of the huge whale in the BB i coldcall KQ here. What do you think about my c/r against his wide range? And what do you think is the best riverplay for my range? Overbet jam, halfpot, c/c or c/f?I saw especialy thinking people calling very wide in these spots against c/r on flop and turn, cause my range is very (semi)bluffheavy and many guys dont c/r strong TP here, so there is a good chance that he wont perceive me on KQ too.

Thanks

I like your preflop thoughts.

As played I´d say all options are viable on this flop. You can x/r him and balance the times you´re x/r him with weaker hands, because you can´t really x/c him often with weak hands / draws, given his high barrel%.

But especially given his high barrel%, you could as well easily go into x/c, x/c, x/c-mode, I´d say either way is okay.

As played, I´d either be shoving the river or x/c. I´d be shoving if I expect him to herocall me very light, and I´d x/c (any bet!) if I expect him to have a weak range that´s likely to attack my perceived give-up. And I agree with you that he´s very unlikely to put you on KQ, so it´s really up to how "strong" his range is, but I tend to shove.

I like the pre-flop call as well. You can't really do much if he 4-bets you because your hand does poorly equity wise, despite your blockers. Keeping the fish in is obviously very important.Also like the c/r. You are close to the top of your range here, and this is a boad you're going to c/r a decent amount.

I'd probably check-call on the river. How does he play his (combo draws), and how would he play a hand like 65?. I think he would 3-bet them most of the time, so I'd try to induce a bluff. I'd also check because the T is a bad card for you. KT now beats you, his unlikely TT does too.

Given how thin you rep on the flop and the fd missing, I think you have a clear value-bet against someone who plays very loose-aggro. I'm torn between 175/250/Jam though, as I think all have merits depending your history. 175ish/Call I guess if you don't have some history that makes you lean towards one of the others.

I like the 175/call best.  I think he has a decently wide range on the river. I think this gets the most value from his bluff catchers and draws that he is going to turn into a bluff.  I dont think he has much better here often, bc I think he would have played flop or turn faster.  Only hands I see him shoving river for value that we lose to is KT and TT

given he likes to barrel, just x/c'ing down probably exploits him the most, (also, what does this do to your x/c'ing range? What hands are you x/c'ing him twicie with?) 

As played, I like a 3rd barrel as all the draws bricked.

thanks for sharing your thoughts. i shoved the river, but unluckily he snapped with KK. against this player and his low wtsd and high W$WSF, i really like the idea to bet/call instead of shoving (but still think that shoving is fine too). that gives him the opportunity for some spewy moves.
