Preflop I always hesitate between raise and overlimp, AQJ8s being always a raise to me. Here with BB being short and CO auto-posted, raising seems superior.
CO is probably a fish, I've no info on him.
As a general rule, I try to balance my range here, cbetting any GS+ and my pairs up to most QQ and KK. I also bet my lowish over card hands like 79TJ or KJT9 and any 8. I would check 44 for balance, although I don't have many in my tight opening range, so I also check strong pairs which don't need much protection, like AKQQ, AKK or AA, which I have a lot in my range. I feel like if I cb all the AKJx like hands, my cbetting range will be too weak and I would cb too often on a board I don't hit much, and I'm probably making hands I do very well against fold.
On the other hand, vilain won't hit much often either, so unless I expect him to float with just over cards, I have a profitable cbet with any 4 cards. How would you adjust, what would your ranges look like ?
As played, turn bet seems standard and river bet with the Qc probably kinda mandatory since I'm so low in my range ?
TY
