4:45 with KJ on T76r I would still cbet at a high frequency. You have most sets in your range, some SCs, its not a bad board for you considering the positions. On the turn after you check back I think you have to simplify to a B50+ size or check. Given its an ace turn making the board more static where top pair doesn't change we want to be more polar. I don't think thin value bets or cheap bluffs make any sense on the turn. Would just use a 2/3 or X here. If I was balanced enough to X back some TT / 77 type of hands on the flop I could see OB on the turn making a lot of sense as well.
Using simple solutions to train 3BP IP is better IMO. Just uses 33/66 mostly. Some times 130% mixed in, but only having 2 sizes makes life a lot easier when drilling. Having a 20%, 33%, 50%, 75%, 100%, 125%, size is just too much and splits the range too much where its sensitive on future streets.
7:20 I think is a key poker concept that was glossed over in this hand. You mentioned you would pull bluffs from hands that have a bit more equity such as flush draws, but that is only a small portion of your range. If you look at QJ QTs JTs and your hand Jd9d its almost a pure turn barrel. You are at a nut advantage on the turn so should be a pretty high frequency barrel. I would give up with a lot of heart hands that block some of the XC XF range, but spades, diamonds, and clubs either have equity or unblock some of the XC XF range. They have little SDV and put immense pressure on a lot of middling PP or ace high hands that floated the flop. For a similar reason you mention most king high boards are just range bets, they are also high frequency turn barrels. There are not a lot of bluffs to choose from on Ace and King high boards, so these broadways that unblock some back door flush draws are usually the ones that are used besides the equity driven bluffs.

The main idea behind this series was to explore flop play and finding a good sizing for that. To achieve that I went with a lot of turn sizings.

Love this format Shaun. Keep up the great work!
