mwp, so I'd lean towards $180-200 on flop, oop to the BU. Pretty drawy; wanna get HU if poss.

I think you played T+R fine. Not sure there's much else we can do. Ch/c Turn is obviously possible (though no reason to think it's better) but we still have same gross riv decision.

And ch/c riv looks spewy.

i think you played it fine vs a tight player. if its a complete unknown i treat my hand the same as AQ and just shove river. a tight player i think has a much narrower range after the turn so there is not much value in betting river, and c/calling readless is spewy.

tough spot, wp

I'm not sure about the turn, could you guys give me a thought?

If he called the flop Qx, we could wait for the river to valuebet?!
If he called with a straightdraw, it is ppb JT which he could have called pf as a SC. It got there.
If he called with a flushdraw, he got there too. we have K :club:, so not worried for a :club: on the river.

Ok, QJ/QT might be scared of by a bad riv, and not call a riverbet after a turncheck, so that might be a backdraw.
obv, also combodraws like T9 or so would call a turnbet, but fold to a turncheck-riverbet.

I see pros and cons for both options
Im not sure which line is most profitable here. could you guys help me out on it?

the problem I see with checking is that you are forced to c/f vs any reasonable bet, so you give up the betting lead and allow him to semi-bluff or possibly even value-bet a worse hand.
