Hey, on flop I didnt bet cause I though FE is low and I dont have too much equity.
But now when I look at equilab (he has about 11% call in these positions, which means he has Axs, suited connectors, 22-TT, KQo, AJo) it seems like I can cb any two here against him.

As played when he xb flop he reps 33-66, AQ, maybe AK sometimes, I think worse Ax would stab flop with his 60% bet ip.

So I didnt bet cause didnt see value and when he bets river again I thought he wouldnt do that with his pairs often enough.
Now Im not sure if it was so good play, cause in addition to bluffs he might have sometimes worse Ax for value.

Hi,

pre flop good

Flop, against villain's range (which is wide as you mentioned) AJ without BD I think it's close. I would cbet all AQ and all broadways with a decent BDFD.

Turn checking looks good, x/c I suppose is the standard play, I could see a x/r for value here bu it's probably too thin.

River I think the x/f is very bad, realistically we only loose to AQ, villain has a ton of air in his range and he will very likely be value betting a lot of worse Ax, we look weak.

Hey, you said he has a ton of air in his range on the river.
Is that really true? I mean, he has 60% bet ip, I guess such villain is going to bet his air on this flop rather than xb most of the time.

Yeah, maybe not a ton of air but certaintly a fair amount, way more than AQ combos. Not to mention weaker Ax.
