somewhat decent reg, blocked on SS, seems pretty much ABC, id ont think ive ever seen any creative unusual lines from him, no reads on his sizings. 14/11/3.9/4.3k, CO steal 21%, cbet 96%, turn cbet 58%(50)

flop - would you say that two overs, K high + a strong BDFD are enough to reverse float a guy that doesn't seem to 2nd barrel a lot unless he has it? i think its fine, especially when he gives me such a good price.

turn - now ive picked up my FD and dont really know what to do. I never use a ch/c flop, lead turn line, maybe this is a good moment to do so? Im not sure it would be great though since i don't think i can fold out many better hands (A high and some random 22. weak Tx, 77-99, random 6x, 4x, 3x less likely) and dont really see many weaker calling - i believe an ABC guy will often fold his draws to a 1/2 pot bet on the turn.

i went for a ch/r since i want FE and i think thats the best way to get it.

river - question of the day - are you turning into a bluff to fold out A high since i don't actually think we're strong enough to ch/c an ABC guy taking this line? or maybe you think its fine to ch/c?

as you can see ive started flatting form the blinds much more and so far its just causing more and more problems and difficult spots :) nevertheless i believe it may become much better EV wise when i work on it than 3bet/folding playable hands like i used to do until now.

For one thing, I am not sure I wanna play <30bb OOP with KJs vs 21% range OOP vs a competent player tbh. This guys seem to cbet a lot and double barrel often. I think I rather 3bet pre.

As played, I rather 2bet on the flop. He's got a lot of Ax, pairs within his range, so that ain't good. I think a mediocre ABC reg with high cbet % is gonna fold a big number of hands here, so a small 2.6-7x c/r is gonna be profitable often enough(I am not saying it's a great board to do so, but he's ABC and since we didn't do it before, I think he will give us credit for FDs, Tx, maybe even JJ.
