So H1, what kind of hands do we want on the turn? I agree 2 is pretty terrible for us. Or are we pretty much checking behind to improve if we haven't already?

J9s is bottom of my range there, but just in it. I'm kind of confused about what range to give him, but yeah I guess one approach is to just start with a tightish range and keep adding hands until it becomes a call and see how I feel about that range when I get there...

And yeah, it's not a money issue. I guess it's a conflict between goals of improving, and impulse to have fun. I need to be thinking longer term, rather than which I'd prefer to do right now.

Hands or cards?

If you 3bet QQ+, AK, KQ then it's just a pretty dreadful flop for you I suppose.

If you mean what cards on the turn can we bluff then probably not all that many but I don't particularly see why this is too much of an issue. If there is a Q we can maybe fold out some weak Kx, K shouldn't really make him fold much Qx but he probably does. AJT all help you, I suppose the T probably leaves you behind enough that bluffing is ok OTT. But I just don't feel the need to bluff here all that much at 2nl.
