Lucky river or a disaster?

Hi guys!

Only had 70 hands about villain, he played a 20/12/5,6 so far.

PokerStars, Hold'em No Limit - $0.02/$0.05 - 5 players

UTG (Hero): $16.58 (332 bb)
CO: $6.46 (129 bb)
BU: $5.48 (110 bb)
SB: $5.00 (100 bb)
BB: $5.00 (100 bb)

Pre-Flop: ($0.07) Hero is UTG with K T
Hero raises to $0.15, 3 players fold, BB calls $0.10

Flop: ($0.32) 8 A K (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $0.16, BB calls $0.16

Flop cbet is standard I think, he will call with weaker hands.

Turn: ($0.64) 6 (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $0.35, BB calls $0.35

Turn cbet seems to be a bad idea now, he will fold all of hands I beat from his range and only call/raise with stronger ones.

River: ($1.34) T (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $0.75, BB raises to $4.34 (all-in), Hero ???

At first glance river seems to be a lucky card, but he like it way better.

Questions:
-Am I right when I say I should chech behind OTT and call OTR?
-When we talk about ranges I am a beginner. I mean I always put villain on hand I can't beat. Here I would say he could have 88, ATs KTs, A8s and A6s. What else could he have after this line?

P.S.: After I wrote this, I think the perfect play woud be check behind OTT and check/fold OTR, I am totally confused now :f_confused:

Hi.

For ranges I would recommend Equilab to use. And you can find videos for sure, where they show, how to use it.

OTF, cbetting is standard(I prefer 2/3 though), but this is some kind of a bluff, because there is an Ace on the board.

OTT I would checkbehind, because if he has weaker hand, he would fold that for sure, and we didn't improve aswell, so not sure, that it's a good idea to cbetting here(AT would be a different case).

OTR I would bet/fold(2/3 pot). Not two pair Ax-es would call, or KJ, or KQ.

Pre is fold I think. Turn check fold. River check fold or sometimes check call.

KTs HJ pre is not betting?

If you watch closely, one player is missing, so we basically play in MP.

Preflop is ok, flop you can check back or bet only one street.

Second barbell is speawy because you blocker hands that oppo folds.

River is a jolly must you can bet fold: he raise minimun two pair but not worse than KT and he doesn't bluff Ax.

Bet fold river, but I think that your mistake is turn
