SB: $10.92 (109.2 bb)
Hero (BB): $12.33 (123.3 bb)
UTG: $8.10 (81 bb)
MP: $30.56 (305.6 bb)
CO: $14.84 (148.4 bb)
BTN: $14.41 (144.1 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A 2
3 folds, BTN raises to $0.20, SB folds, Hero calls $0.10

Flop: ($0.45) Q 8 K (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN bets $0.33, Hero raises to $1, BTN calls $0.67

Turn: ($2.45) 7 (2 players)
Hero bets $1.40, BTN calls $1.40

River: ($5.25) T (2 players)
Hero bets $3.40, BTN calls $3.40

Preflop: My default call vs 2x.

Flop: I don't have a good draw nor value hand, but I have decend backdoors, so I think this situation is great for bluff check/raising. I could then fire any diamond if he calls, that I'm sure of. I'm not sure what about T and J, even A, because if he calls the flop, those cards will probably hit his range. When he calls, it's clear that he is not super strong with KK, QQ and 88, maybe even KQ, because he would most likelly try to protect them with 3betting

Turn: Hit the nut flushdraw so I have to bet. I hope he will fold one pair hands like AK, KJ, KT and maybe KQ.

River: Not sure what to do there. I'm aware that after the flop and turn line, I have to bluff rivers quite frequently. He could still have some top pairs which he could fold now (especially with Kd). Probably it's too optimistic to expect that he fold two pairs, but I would certainly be inclined to if I was him. So, betting or check/folding?

BTN: 25/25/8 (VPIP/PFR/H)

I think you have to bet river there yeah.

You only rep a flush with this line, but given preflop action you can have a lot of flush combos. So I don't mind it. The problem is you get called a lot. Most players can't fold KT, or even AK here.

I like it.

A suggestion: Go to Equilab and see exactly how much (percentagewise) you bluff on this particular flop. This can serve as a indicator to if you bluff a reasonable amount of hands.

You can think of 3b bluffing pre with small Axo vs 2x open. But calling also works.
I think that the river bet will get called a lot.

Overbet river. Basically with your line your value hands are only flushes on the river.

Overbetting river is sexy esp. if you would also take the x/r, bet, overbet line with AdJd etc.

If you alter your bet size according to whether you bluff or value bet, then overbet nuts and bluff with smaller bets. Doing it the other way is a mathematical (and unavoidable) disaster.

By overbetting aren't we facing only flushes?

There are no flushes. We have the A and block most of it. All remaining flush combos in villains range have also OESD or gutshot otf. And probably with strong draw on the flop or made flush ott villain is not taking a passive line.

WP. I think you could bet river a bit bigger.

Maybe indifferent to fold or call.

With ace high? We'd probably prefer him to fold...
