This type of board is causing me headache OOP!!

I have no clue how to play them.

CBet and villain usually calls at least once so I probably have to barrel at least twice.
This time I tried Ck/C twice but I have the feeling that he could 3 barrel me with any 2.

When he calls this with a wide range, it means you're valuebetting your Ahigh on the flop!

So generally with the strong Ax I bet the flop for value, especially vs habitual floaters.
The plan is then to c/c turn and potentially c/c river if he is aggro enough to bet twice.

I'd only c/c the flop if I had reads that led me to do so, otherwise I think our hand is just too strong to be checked.

As played you're in a pure guessing game about what he's doing. I really don't like c/calling 2 times and check/folding because he plays perfectly with any pair (they usually bet twice and check back) AND with air because he can 3barrel.

So I either c/f turn, or c/r turn, or c/c turn lead river, or c/c turn&river depending on how he's playing.
