I thought that on this turn having a combodraw it's a good spot to make him float, and x/raise him with such good equity.

His turn 3bet sucks, but I cant do much but calling based on potodds.

River? I thought his turn 3betting range will be polarized (very strong hands, or draws), so I should check my entire range on the river to make him bluff with his busted draws, and valuebet his strong hands.

His checkback, and showdown was surprising for me, it seems that he is doing this play with a condensed range. What do you think about his play? Should I adapt to this somehow in the future?

Hey duder1n0,

Preflop is fine.

Turn 2nd barrel would be fine. We can put in our x/r some % of the time though to help defend turn checks.

I guess we have an odds call vs 3bet. River check is fine.

Don't really get his 3bet with this hand. I don't think it's a good play. Little too thin for value. My guess he probably just thinks you would 2barrel all legit hands on this texture and he raises for protection.
