    as 6-out semi-bluff cos obviously I have a monster if the King doesn't scare me. But probably cos i was having a spew-monkey session is a better answer. Interesting.

    Don't really like it. He's probably not opening ace worse than AJ here so I doubt you get enough folds from such a strong range. I mean maybe he folds KQ, but that's probably outweighed by AJ-AK when he takes this line. I'd want a really good read to bet this turn and defo wouldn't bet it unless I was planning on betting the river because I had some great read he folds these hands. I'd just showdown - you're ahead plenty here on the turn and he doesn't fold enough when you're not imo.

    Okay ignore some of that lol the turn being a K means an ace is an ace here obv, but still I don't trust him to fold AJ/AQ etc.

    I think turning our hand into a bluff on the river is the only street I like. I'd 3-bet pre and as played probably just fold everywhere.

    check turn fold river if bet into he's not gonna fold kx or ax for u to start bluffing here just try to get to showdown and note what he shows down after doing this flop donk

    Check turn. On river you're trying to make him fold AJ/AQ but success ratio won't be too high.
    Nine to five is how to survive - I ain't trying to survive / I'm trying to live it to the limit and love it a lot //

    Can offer RB deals on most sites, PM me.

    14/12 guy probably has a strong range at showdown rather than trying to win at every pot.

    I would just fold the flop, barely any hands we beat apart from occasional gutters. Check turn/river to see what he lead with.

    same size on w$wsd? i think u may be overvaluing stats like this they take a while to become credible some guys just go on massive heaters over a few k hands and these type of stats get skewed more than things like pfr etc

    taking note of the actual hands/quality of hands villain gets to sd with is more effective and will have u avoid making incorrect assumptions based on a statistic that may be misleading you
