Villain is one of the better regs at 200/500 zoom. Does anyone lead turn here? River plan? Felt pretty lost with whether I should be turning this into a "bluff" at some point or not.

i dont like leading turn, he will still have plenty of boats in his range on turn. when he checks back i assume this eliminates nearly all his boat combos.

seeing how its hard for him to get here with KKxx and he might bet turn with KTxx, seems like a reasonable spot to go for the river c/r

Your range distribution OTT

I think that you want be betting this turn sometimes with both your boats and your best blocker hands that can't call down (I think you will have 2x as many boats as him here). But I don't think you want to be betting all your boats so that villain can barrel w/o fear of value towning himself or getting jammed on.
That said, I think that this hand is a good hand to just k/c turn (along with some of your boats to keep him from being able to value bet supper thinly OTR) and decide on river.

You'll run into KK or other boats sometimes but it's a pretty good hand to have in your river CR range (as a bluff). I think raising river is better than calling, you get shown AQ a lot imo.

Yeah I like bluffing as well, we have one of the better hands to do that with, we rep boats fairly well, and his range is pretty capped.

Do people vbet AQ on the river there all day given we almost never lead in that spot?

Not value betting AQ in his shoes would be a sizable mistake. That basically leaves him with boats for value betting, which he shouldn't have much due to turn check back.

You can either XC or XF, I'd lean towards XF.

Hi Ben,

Could you please elaborate on this? Is it because you think he can still have some boats that checks back turn, or because he won't fold his straights to our raise? I guess the fact we have spades allows us to x/c a bit more often, but to me it seemed a decent hand to x/r bluff with and that might be a mistake :O
