one question, at @'13:00 when we checked back KJ on K84 board 3 way and K pairs on the turn facing this small bet i would expect he could be value/protecting an 8 here and given our dynamics with this guy and the fact he expects us not to have a king and due to the fact that a lot of rivers will be higher than an eight wouldnt you want to raise now to get value from 8, i feel that hes never folding an 8 to a raise here, and possibly inducing him to get tricky with a couple draws?
I don't think there's a reason to raise turn. His range has a wide array of hands from 8x to bluffs and we want to keep them all in instead of pushing them out. We shouldn't try to put him on an exact hand like 8x but rather put him on a range and play accordingly. As we can see that he had QJo here, if he has that in his bluffing range, it's very certain that his range is predominantly bluffs and much less 8x type hands.
on the following hand i got a question as well, we have A8 with an 8 of diamonds on A74 dd , since we block a huge portion of his calling range (8s for a sd, D for flush and A for top pair) and given that we checked back top pair the very last hand maybe villain thinks that we could be checking back with air in order to make him think we have a perceived Ax range and maybe let him catch a broadway on the turn and get paid 2 streets?
You are being too optimistic here on what *could possibly* happen. Firstly, the straight and fd blockers are pretty insignificant here so we really aren't blocking a "huge" portion of his calling range. 7x, draws, and other Ax will call and even stuff like KQ or KJ will peel 1 here sometimes. It would also be a bad range play for us to cbet all of our air here but not our Ax since from a GTO perspective our opponent can now c/r bluff here incredibly profitably. Also there is no guarantee this guy saw the last hand play out so we shouldn't let that influence our decisions here at all.
Around the 28 minute mark with A2ss you say that pretty much everything that calls the flop has us beat, but I think it's really common for a random opponent to just be floating this spot with two overs, KQs like you said or other combos of suited broadway hands. You said the only pairs he might fold to a turn bet would be 7s or 8s which he might just rip pre, so that actually leaves only a few hands that he could have that would be better than ours. Basically we would be putting him on 55, 66, a set, or a suited connector with a 9, all of which would have either raised flop or ripped pre (55, 66) at least some percentage of the time.
That being said I think this is actually a pretty good turn bet since we don't want to give up the initiative and get bluffed by two overs, and obviously we should have 10 outs against most value hands that decide to peel again. What do you think?
