I was thinking about the turn play. We still have some equity vs his range, which may consist of a lot of Kx, Qx, one club type of hands. But can we really fold enough ott to make the bet profitable? I feel like these paired structures are a big struggle for me.

Thing is - I have realized lately, that villains like to call quite a lot of random hands vs limp cbet. Maybe I was just lucky, but I have to check my database. Don't know how to do that yet, but I will figure it out, as PT 4 is v powerful, I just have not discovered its potential yet.

What are your thoughts on this?

Thanks.

Would just check flop usually as getting better to fold can be tough and you don't have any backdoors. Plus you have decent showdown with J high.

As played I would just check turn.

If he's tight you could think of min raising pre-flop, but this fine as well.
Post-flop I would just check it down. It will be tough to get better hands or draws to fold.
