Villain is 42/17/7 over 173 hands. Fold to 3bet 43%. Fold blind to steal, 44%. Fold to cbet 25%.

Worth noting this is the first time villain has 3bet to defend his blind, usually just called.

Firstly I think I should have bet the turn, I really don't know why I checked. This seems to be a mistake I am repeating with overpairs on a paired flop and is something I will have to work on.

By checking the turn, I feel it gives villain a chance to bluff the river and an all-in looks about as bluffy as it gets. The only problem is, I don't like the Q on the river as QQ now obv has me crushed, I can now only beat AK, AQ, TT and a busted FD.

Thoughts?

Fold unless you've noticed he's a bluffy person then you can consider it. If not, be grateful he was kind enough to show you how strong his hand is..

Bet turn, fold river as played.

Villain has like AJ, KJ, JJ+ here like 100% of the time.

Also I 4bet bigger, like $1.50ish.

NO 1.34

no 1.32 I believe this is just behind the crucial 1.33 breakpoint of going from a fold into a call.

How often do we expect villain to be bluffing here? Would he go all-in if he had a monster like AJ/QQ...surely a value bet makes more sense?

I'm snapping this off though. He doesn't need to have much spew in his range.

Fold, the line that he plays could put him with the cheese as JJ or QQ for example. I think AA,AQ or KQ he doesn´t play in this way so bluffs (AK) or JJ/QQ. My decision is fold
