First, I think that you're right in that we're targeting a 1 pair type hand here, and are bet/calling. I think we need to size down our river bet, maybe 35-40k. We're looking for calls and I think psychologically he will be more willing to call off closer to 1/3 his stack, rather than 1/2 his stack, and we can still have some missed hearts and 68 and stuff in our range we use this smaller sizing with as a bluff. I don't really ever like check calling here after we've lead the turn, I like "block betting" as stated. I think he'd be hard pressed to bluff the river with air or turn a 1 pair hand into a bluff on this river, and if we check/call, I think we have a losing hand the vast majority of the time.

Hey Jeremy,
Had a few thoughts on the QJ hand at 19:00.
