River: 9♠ ($30, 2 players)
SB bets $20, Hero folds

Final Pot: $30

Preflop is too loose, don't know why i decided to steal at the time but anyway i'm more interested about my postflop play.
Cbet is fine i guess, after his raise i can't fold immediately i think so my plan is to call and reevaluate turn and fold most of them i guess.
On the turn it gets interesting, after his check he either has air/5x or something with decent showdown value like Kx :spade: imo, i don't think he has a lot of other fd in his range cause this K is a good card for him to barrel.
My plan is not to bet turn cause i don't think i have a lot of FE and i'm not repping alot and to bet any river if he checks again.

Hi.

Flop: I think it's fine to call one time and fold Turn with this not-too-strong hand.

Turn: When he checks the Turn I think you should bet the Turn and bluff the River yourself.

Yeah that would be the standard play i guess but what range do you put him on that you think you get enough folds?
And what are we repping ourselves?
The only thing we are folding is weak draws/air and we will be able to scoop the pot from them on most rivers where we can rep some thin value with a bet

Our range is basically uncapped here. We could do that with all sets, straights, twopairs, and AA. His line is consistent with a hand that is either giving up or has picked up some SD value when he checks the Turn.

I don't think the K is a good card for him to barrel - It's an obvious scare card which actually really isn't a scare card - I have absolutely no reason to believe that he has any KX hands in his CR range
