Hi
Behind me were passive players, so I called pre.

On the river I turned it into bluff, cause he can bet here with this sizing AQ/AK and I think he would fold it. This sizing makes me think he has flush less often than normal and it must include quite a group of bluffs.
I beat only bluff and I dont have better hands in my range anyway to make a move.
I block Ad and I can represent Adxd on the river by raising.

Looks fine to me. He'll also have sets.

The only thing to think about is how you go about balancing balancing your bluffs shoves to value shoves. How many flushes do you actually have here? I would guess only a few. So you can't really be shoving all your A:dXx or even all you're A:dJx against someone paying attention.

But against this kind of stupid river bet sizing, shoving all ones A:dX hands I'd think is probably going be massively plus EV, even if very exploitable.

You are not going to have too many A:dXo type of hands, given preflop positions. AJo is the worst offsuit Ace you are calling here. So bluffing here is ok.

A:dJx - 3#
A:dX:d - 7-8 #

Here's how I work out how many A:dx:d I have on the river. What are you doing differently and why?

12 Total

3b Pre: A:dQ:d, A:dK:d
3b Pre: A:d2:d, A:d3:d, A:d6:d

7 Total

Board blocks A:d9:d, A:d8:d, A:d6:d

4 Total

I raise turn with 2

Total on river = 2

Are you calling all suited Aces here preflop? Not raising any on the turn?

well i was assuming flatting 100% of AXs and never raising the Turn.

Of course from the CO, it might make more sense to not flat so wide and 3b some instead.

I don't think we need to raise the Turn here with A:dX:d. We could do that if his bet size was really small but I prefer raising with slightly weaker flushes on the Turn (K:dX:d and Q:dX:d), though I would almost always flat the Turn with most of my flushes.
