2questions:

flop would u raise here? i decide not for 2 reasons:

we are deep and i want to see a unpaired turn. Also i don´t want that he fold some hands he could barrel ott. on the other hand his range should be very strong when he squeeze deep oop. what i like in retro is a minraise to stack him otr

-turn: after he check/call i was sure he has AA or KK so i decide to bet big

-River: i think his callingrange is elastic. whats ure sizing here?

there are 2 ways to approach river betsizing imho:

1. You can say his range is capped and i want to apply maximum pressure, also with my bluffs -> bet Big

2. On the other side i dont think you have that many floats/bluffs in that spot, so choosing a smaller betsize is more appealing.

Im really not sure which betsize is best in this spot, but i think with my bluffs i would want to bet at least 2/3 pot, so id do the same with my valuehands.
But then again its plo 50 and you dont need to balance your bluff and value betsizes that much, especially in a rare spot.

All in all id go with a 40-50% potsize bet, but i have to admit this is kind of arbitrary.

Seems like our first warrior is going to have great insight for todays coaching

i have to agree with everything. I don't think we have a bluff here ever otr, and if we do bet with something like AA or KK we would probably bet around 1/2 pot, so i like that sizing to get a call. It's really hard to balance here with bluffs like mentioned, cause they are very rare indeed with the line we took. Still maybe 2/3 pot works because there are a few new straights there.
