Hand recorder used for this poker hand: PokerStrategy.com Elephant 0.102 by www.pokerstrategy.com.

Preflop: Hero is BB with K♣, 7♠
2 folds, CO calls, 2 folds, Hero checks.

Flop: (2,50 SB) A♦, 7♥, 3♠ (2 players)
Hero checks, CO bets, Hero calls.

Turn: (2,25 BB) J♥ (2 players)
Hero checks, CO bets, Hero calls.

River: (4,25 BB) 6♠ (2 players)
Hero checks, CO checks.

Final Pot: 4,25 BB

I chosen check/calldown for bluff inducing, but now I think that second pair top kicker is too strong for that against this opponent, also my check/call on such board is too transparent. Would it be better to play x/raise to get some money from his thrash or just bet for value?

I don't think anything's transparent to a 83/21 guy. I like c/cdown for bluff induction the most, the board is really dry and there aren't much worse hands that he is going to call you down with.

I think there are quite a few worst hands which will calldown. He has 57 WTS so he probably goes to showdown with most of his pairs. Because of his 21 PFR i don't think he will have pair of A or any PP higher than 7, but he will often have PP lower than 7, pair of 7, pair of 3 and all kinds of gutshots. But i agree that those hands compared to hands which completely missed the board doesn't make that large of portion, but by betting I can stay in control and make sure all 2,5BB goes in the pot when he has worst hand.

most of the time he will have just trash and by checking to give him the opportunity to bluff all his trash hands. i would just bet if he reacts on donkbets with a flopraise or peels trash and raises the turn then but otherwise c/c for bluffinduce is the right play. this guy will bet all the pairs he's calling himself on flop and turn. river not sure but it doesn't matter because the biggest part of his range is trash that he might give up, facing a bet. its fine. river call again!
