Villain is a TAG regular, a bit on the tight side, 13/10/33% ATS. I doubt he's ever folding this flop (50% fold to cbet and it's JJ5) plus he has tons of pocket pairs in his range. We haven't tangled at all, in a session of 100ish hands I've 3bet him once from the blinds and he folded. FWIW I also have a pretty tight image at this table and haven't been getting out of line, I think I'm running about 13/10 which is tighter than normal for me.

I'm guessing a cbet is fine as long as we follow up on turn/river?

Question: how many barrels are we looking to fire here and what would be ideal for sizing? Not sure if this turn is the best to bluff at because we rep kinda thin (though we are utg) and it doesn't change the board much. So I'm thinking if I choose to fire this turn I need to fire the river also. Would you guys ever do that vs someone who is relatively unknown but seems to play a pretty standard tight aggressive game?

Perhaps c/f is fine somewhere I'm just an idiot who likes to try pushing people off hands regardless of board texture :/

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (8 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

MP2 ($38)
CO ($92.35)
Button ($49.25)
SB ($71.70)
BB ($95.65)
Hero (UTG) ($59.30)
UTG+1 ($70.15)
MP1 ($12.15)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with A, K
Hero bets $1.50, 4 folds, Button calls $1.50, 2 folds

Flop: ($3.75) 5, J, J (2 players)
Hero bets $2.50, Button calls $2.50

Turn: ($8.75) 6 (2 players)
Hero?

If we bet this turn though we have to fire almost any river right given that the turn didn't change the board?
"Once we reach a certain level of mastery, we see there are higher levels and challenges. If we are disciplined and patient, we proceed. At each higher level, new pleasures and insights await us--ones not even suspected when we started out. We can take this as far as we want--in any human activity there is always a higher level to which we can aspire."
