This is typical spot were i have feeling that i bleed money.
I bet once than go for ch/c (to try to get some value from his floats) but it seams to me (maybe i am resaults oriented) that people on nl 50 always fire turn & river and i dont know could i bluff catch profitabilly. I think he should ch river with pocket pairs below QQ so his riv range is imo QQ,Jx and some A high floats so what do you think should be my defoult line in this spots or for exemple when i have midl pair as pfa and i am off position ?

Hey Dzikson999,

Generally I agree with you that nl50 players show a tendency to fire two barrels vs turn check with a much higher frequency compared to lower limits where players are more passive. At higher limits the frequency of 2 barrels here is lower where the play is more balanced.

For this reason I think your line here is totally fine. If we want to be theoretical it depends on which hands you are putting in your turn x/c range. I.e if there are lots of stronger hands you'd check turn with here we can look to x/c,x/f 88 whereas if it's one of our stronger bluffcatchers we should generally look to x/c 2.
