SH KQs, BTN vs CO, 3Bet Pot

Not much to do here, shoot twice or x/f unless improved

Flop could be xb but I guess betting isn't bad. You should have decent fold equity.
Turn I wouldn't barrel again because you don't improve.
River is close. I think calling is not bad since you have to win only 25% and I think you might just get that. He can have some bluffs.

i don't think this kind of villain would probe bet you (20/7). I hope you understand he most of the time plays his hand. Let's suppose he would bet QX OTR. What kind of hand would call 3b OOP PF, X-X-Bet river?
I guess AJ would lead turn, as KJ.
So, he probably has QX (QJ,KQ,AQ,QQ)

4h5dJs7cQh
85.71% 71.43% 14.29% { QQ, AQs, KQs, QJs, AQo, KQo, QJo }
14.29% 0.00% 14.29% { KcQc }
I guess it is fold.

Call preflop. Check back flop. As played call river, he could float with random hands and maybe even turning some hand like JT into bluff.

Probe bet is a term used for any bet OOP vs missed cbet. So, for example, if we called preflop BB vs BTN and villain skips cbet on the flop, we can make a probe bet on the turn.

I think this is ok. I see no mistake here. I don´t think we should c bet OTT. Call OTR is good option imo. It´s just 1/2 of the pot and we have top pair on dry board.

Well played on all streets, don't think we can fold the river given the sizing.

I will go BET flop BET turn, he can still have hands like 66 - TT which doesn't fold on flop and hands like AQ, AK.
so B B to fold them on the turn. As played I will call river because he can have some JTs QTs which you beat some bluffs maybe AJ time to time.

77, JJ, JQs, AQ beats you so for sure its a call for me.

What GeorgeAA2010 is saying sounds reasonable for me.

No, you can't keep barreling with KQ high. It is a turn check even in FL. Don't try to win them all, try to maximize EV overall.

OP: Are 3beting for value? Any stats on villain? How many hands? What is your default 3bet range in this spot PF?

I have KQs in calling range since I don't want villain to fold his worse kings and I want to dominate him postflop often enough. Of course, if he is a calling station or passive fish or w/e and he will call wide .. we can obv 3bet for value here. But against a solid TAG I think we are turning our hand into a bluff actually.

I'm following w34z3l's ranges:

KQs is in a mixed range, which means that we can call and 3bet it. Recently I'm trying to 3bet it by default, as long as villain doesn't 4bet alot. I wouldn't call it a "value" 3bet, but also not a "bluff".

Other questions are answered in my opening post.
