Hello,

IPoker, $0.01/$0.02 No Limit Hold'em Cash, 6 Players
Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite.

SB: $2.87 (143.5 bb)
BB: $1.28 (64 bb)
UTG: $1.96 (98 bb) [VPIP:87.00; PFR:20.00; (15 Hands)]
MP: $1.99 (99.5 bb)
CO: $3.72 (186 bb)
Hero (BTN): $2.92 (146 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BTN with A J
UTG calls $0.02, 2 folds, Hero raises to $0.08, 2 folds, UTG calls $0.06

Flop: ($0.19) 6 9 T (2 players)
UTG bets $0.13, Hero calls $0.13

Turn: ($0.45) Q (2 players)
UTG bets $0.22, Hero calls $0.22

River: ($0.89) 7 (2 players)
UTG bets $0.89, Hero folds

PreFlop - I raised over a villian who had a strong tendency to be a bit aggressive recreational player

Flop - I decided to flat called his DonkBet as I thought he had random hands in his range and so then, my FD to the J and my two OC were most likely to give me the best hand
Turn - I decided to flat called him again, as the Q gave me more outs, and I thought his range was still quite wide
River - At this point, I gave up my hand as I didn't improved though I still thought there were some bluffs in his range despite of his pot size bet

Do you think I should have SemiBluff 3Bet him my hand OTF or OTT?; What do you think It's villain's range?; How would you have played the hand yourself?

Note: I had won this villain a 46bb pot in the previous hand and that's why I thought he was now trying to get his money back by bluffing me

Thank you

Well played, I see no reason to semi-bluff against a fish on this board.

Are you floating or drawing at a flush?

Super-easy fold on the flop. AQ and everything better has you beat. If you mistakenly call, then fold on turn. (UTG a fish or not...) If you decide to lose a big pot with AJ high in an initially very small pot, then you are the fish.

Not a big mistake to call flop, but you can just fold, your draw is not strong and you don't know which cards are good for you

Why not make a small 3 bet! He can Fold a bluff, IF He 4 bet You Fold, IF He call You deside turn.
Second Barell If He check or give upp If He bet.
Same price as call until You miss on river card but more chans to taket it Down.

Honestly? I would have folded on the flop. AJ is an easily dominated hand, and it usually is. Plus that board is scary ugly for your hand. Straightening and flushing. Easy fold.

Stats on 15 hands is not much to go by.

If you think your J-high flush is a winning hand you played it well. On the turn: 9 outs ad 2% is 18% chance to hit a club. Pot odds are 67 to 22, around 3 to 1. This should be a fold. However the implied odds justify a call. I.c. (45 +22 + 44 (half pot bet by V on the river) =) 111 to 22, around 5 to 1 as implied odds.

Yes, our outs are far from clear.

I'd like to introduce you to the concept of reverse implied odds, which is highly relevant here.

I'd prefer folding the flop personally to a 2/3 pot sized bet

as played, and considering the weak range we place him on, with the increased outs and and only 1/2 pot size bet I would probably call with the plan of shoving most blank river cards as a bluff (still considering the weak range we place him on)

OTR, his bet is too high to shove on top and therefore it is a clear fold
