BTN: $98.50 (98.5 bb)
SB: $193.35 (193.4 bb)
Hero (BB): $229.75 (229.8 bb)
UTG: $103 (103 bb)
MP: $216.80 (216.8 bb)
CO: $504.36 (504.4 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q K
UTG raises to $3, MP calls $3, CO folds, BTN calls $3, SB folds, Hero calls $2

Flop: ($12.50) J 7 K (4 players)
Hero checks, UTG checks, MP bets $7, BTN calls $7, Hero calls $7, UTG folds

Turn: ($33.50) A (3 players)
Hero checks, MP checks, BTN checks

River: ($33.50) 2 (3 players)
Hero checks, MP bets $19, BTN folds, Hero raises to $58

Villain is losing reg -7bb over 20k hands.

Maybe my call on the flop is not the best but I think the fact that o have the Kd makes it ok?

OTR, i have a very good bluffing opportunity as I know neither of them has a flush given their line and the fact that I have the Kd.

I like my x/r line as villain will be betting all two pairs/sets but in hindsight I should be making it bigger when I have a bluff, like 68, and 58 when I have it.

Does this makes sense?

I like the line if you would play straight+ the same way. The problem is that many people just lead their straights and flushes OTR (I see it every day) because they dont want to lose value and their c/r is then not so strong.

i would def x/r my monsters OTR.

I think leading is bad as you dont get max value.

Ie in this spot if we have a flush and bet the river we expect at best one caller.

But if we check. Flop bettor will bet again and button mighjt bluff catch --> two bets for us. And ofc one of them might hero call our x/r.

So x/r >lead

What do you think about the comment i made on sizing?

Exactly why it's better to lead as a bluff imo.

I think it's not necessary to be balanced in many multi-way situations. Even vs good regs balance way more important in HU situations which occur more frequently.

Also I usually make a small flop lead here.
