Trips with TK BvB - riverplay?

Villain is 25/21, 63% (!) SB-open, 75/59/43 cbet in SRP oop, 59% x/f river, 5% x/r river (9 / 189).

I flat the hand pre because he folds pretty much to 3bets so I decided to take a flop against his weak range. What do we do on the river?

i quite like raising these flops and levelling the villain to spazz off or call down with big 10s, straight draws, ak/aq gutshots.

as played i go for a pot sized bet. looks a bit more bluffy like you have a q9, kq type hand or that you have just been floating to rep big otr. think we can get looked up by all 2 pairs and sometimes A high.

if villain check jammed i find the call and expect to see air alot of the time.

why not raise flop?, on that board, maybe he put you on any J, Axs, AT, KQ, Q9, Q8s, K9, some sc as bluff?
For the other way, he maybe some Axs(if he know you are capable of raise bluff on that board, maybe he think his A is "good" vs a part of your bluff or semi-bluff raise.....) or some Tx, maybe Jx, QQ+, TT, KQ,

i think he can following with these hands vs your raise on flop.. true?

Played how do you played... i would bet 2/3 or 1/2 pot on river... ,why?


On river he maybe have a busto FD diamond and some SD o gutshot not complete..
if he has an A, maybe call you a rasonable bet (1/2,2/3 pot?), thinking a part of your range is busted FD or SD..

if he has a Tx, blind vs blind... almost always call a 1/2, 2/3pot...

if he has a Jx or better and checking/raising hoping you bet your busted draws or make a thin value bet, perhaps c/r any bet...


Sorry for my english..

I dont know.. what do you think for my reasoning?I always enjoy reading your posts

Sizing here is going to depend a decent amount on how stationy villain is, how wide he expects you to get to the river, and how wide he expects you to value bet.

I'd raise flop here, as he has 65% of hands and cbetting prob 80%+ on this texture. For your overall gameplan, raising is good and allows you to bluff a ton and put pressure on him in general, which is what you want vs someone opening 65% and cbeting 75%.

I'd just bet whatever you think like T8 can call a bet with.

I would only consider a flopraise in an exploitive scenario. wich means if i dont have specific reads (like villain spews if hero makes inducingplays like a raise on that board) AJ is in my callingrange OTF.
since our floatingrange is pretty wide and we get to the river with quite a few busted draws like KQ, BDFDs,etc we should probably bet pretty big (with our entire range obv). without any reads i wouldnt necessiarly overbet (even though our range would allow it) to avoid generating too much FE.
fwiw: If villain cbets too much oop i like either raising the flop with really marginal EQ like backdoor draws (K5cc, 87cc) or float a bit loser (obv depending on his turn frequncies) and plan on turnraises or bet vs missed bets to avoid having a TOO large air potion o the river.
