Stats of villain:

Small sample, but villain seems to be a LAG player.

PokerStars, Hold'em No Limit - $0.02/$0.05 - 6 players

UTG: $5.00 (100 bb)
MP: $5.80 (116 bb)
CO: $10.50 (210 bb)
BU: $5.00 (100 bb)
SB (Hero): $5.46 (109 bb)
BB: $4.61 (92 bb)

Pre-Flop: ($0.07) Hero is SB with K K
1 fold, MP raises to $0.15, 2 players fold, Hero 3-bets to $0.50, 1 fold, MP calls $0.35

Flop: ($1.05) 6 4 T (2 players)
Hero bets $0.75, MP calls $0.75

My line is standard so far.

Turn: ($2.55) A (2 players)
Hero bets $0.90, MP raises to $1.80, Hero calls $0.90

I thought If is not cbet here, he would bet his Ax hand and maybe bluff with many others. Not sure about my sizing tho. Also not sure, what a minraise means here from a LAG player?

River: ($6.15) 4 (2 players)
Hero checks, MP bets $2.75 (all-in), Hero ???

Questions:
:diamond: If I decide to cbet OTT, what sizing should I choose?
:diamond: Should I fold after a minraise?
:diamond: Should let him bluff and choose check/call OTT?
:diamond: OTR are there any hands in his range I could beat or I completely drawing dead?

Ok preflop.
Flop you can bet 1/3 pot, turn cc and cc river without diamond.

As played bet turn, i don't like your moove: 3/4 in board very dry in 3bet pot, bet call turn on Ace and spr redic.

I think that a combodraw shove turn..

I prefer to check call the turn and i don't think it's a huge mistake to check fold the river but as above says you can check call some rivers.

I would Fold when opp raise on the turn. Yes, it could be easily exploited by good players, but they are not that many in NL5.

On the turn, you bet small, and opp raise with either 1) nothing, 2) AX or a set. I think most NL5 players would not bluff raise on turn, especially when they think you might have AQ or AK. You could either bet/fold or bluff re-raise here, but could not bet/call. If I call here, I would call anything on the river against a player with WTSD% >=40%.

On the other hand, sometimes try to bet 1BB or 2BB on the turn, and it would confuse the opp.
