Villain is unknown as default I think AJ is good enough to call but too bad to 3bet for value and too good to 3bet bluff so I decided to call.
Flop I expect him to be giving up sometimes air in one bet and probably AK, AQ, TT,77 fold if I bet big on the turn. We have the backdoornutfd and too overs which aren't realy good against villains AK,AQ hands that beat us so I think turning this into a bluff is better when villain shows weakness.
My plan was to make small overbet on turn and jam a brick river. After we turned top pair I decided to bet for value against TT,JJ,77 types of hands. I dont know if my play was good at all we rep so thin on turn only like 88, 99 and draws and air.
