A6o SB

Right, he should be able to figure out that you can have aces up or a set here (and maybe AK/AQ), more so than draws, after your check-raise. Therefore, I'd not cap turn or donk the river.

I'd check-raise on the flop. You are surely ahead of all of his overcard hands, and there are many more such than overpairs.

I would cap the TUrn to be honest. He might be up against A6 A4 A7 but 77 he's not capping PReflop and the only legit hand that has us beat is AA and AA is quite likely. Way less likely than AK or AQ that he's 3betting against presumeably AJ AT A9 etc. THe donk on the River makes no sense. He's never raising a worse hand but he's still valuebetting AQ and AK so why donking? Donk/3bet is obviously too much. There is no straight in his range but donk is just good in cases where you think he's checking back with too many hands that he'd call to a donkbet but as we figured out, he's likely to be valuebetting AK AQ and nor he is raising a worse hand since you could have x5 type of hands. Cap Turn bet/call River would have been my line!

Suggestions?

Hello everybody.
I have one question. Why we don’t x/r flop. We have often above 50% Eq vs range BB player. So what is reason we don’t x.r flop? We are afraid Raise turn ??

When you look at his range you'll figure out that of course he could have AJs AQ and AK that count about 28-30 combos we are ahead against but on the other side he does have the pocketpairs 99 TT JJ QQ KK AA which are 33 combinations and even if you have a small edge - combowise - over his pocketpairs - which is not the case in this hand - you have to take into account that by checkraising, you give your opponent the opportunity to raise the turn so it means he's just losing 1BB with AK AQ that he'd otherwise bet himself if facing just c/c on the flop.

So we are just winning 1SB extra on the flop but we are losing 1BB more against his pocketpairs so in total we are losing an extra smallbet so just 50% of equity or quite above 50% is not enough due to this problem.

Furthermore we reverse dominate all Ax type of hands. It Means with AK AQ we dont have to protect much since he's just got 3 Outs against us and if - whenever you hit a pair on a lowcard board - checkraise the flop, your opponent can easily read your hand and whenever you c/c then, it means , you don'T have a pair but probably just Ax or Kx so it makes him able to valuebet thinly with Ax on the River and the portion of hands you have to fold by the river becomes larger. So you need to make sure that when you c/c, you also have weak pairs in your range to balance the c/c with weak overcards+bd fd / weak gutshots/ that your c/c mostly consists of.

you might come up with some hands where you maybe falsely checkraised the flop and we take a look on'em.

I agree with the logic, but not totally with the numbers. An aggressive player can easily 3-bet A8+, KT+, QT+, JT in addition to pairs. Then there are many more overcard combos than pairs 7+ in his range.

you mean those overcard type of hands that come along with a flushdraw? since such a play with just overcards would be spew and if you have a read on such an opponent, you should probably checkraise the flop and induce action by enough worse hands and you can easily cap the turn. i would basically not assume to induce many 3bets off a worse hand.
