Poker Stars, $0.50/$1 No Limit Hold'em Cash, 6 Players

Hero (BTN): $391.12 (391.1 bb)
SB: $66.06 (66.1 bb)
BB: $156.41 (156.4 bb)
UTG: $283.96 (284 bb)
MP: $100.71 (100.7 bb)
CO: $174.76 (174.8 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BTN with A J
2 folds, CO raises to $2.50, Hero calls $2.50, 2 folds

Flop: ($6.50) J K 5 (2 players)
CO bets $4, Hero calls $4

Turn: ($14.50) Q (2 players)
CO bets $10, Hero calls $10

River: ($34.50) 6 (2 players)
CO checks, Hero bets $30,

CO 20/16/3.5 after 293
CO steal 40 (12/30, so could be sample issue)
cbet F/T/R 89/67(2/3)/0(0/1)
AFq F/T/R 44/46/10

Is it OK to turn my hand into bluff on the river?
I have the nutflush blocker, I block QJ/KJ/AK/AA somewhat, and I can make him fold some better hands like KT/QT/AQ/Kxs. Sizing? I was considering an overbet, to make sure he doesnt herocall with a better pair, cause I obviously cant make him fold KQ/AT.

Hey duder1n0,

Preflop call is fine.

Flop call pretty standard on this texture.

Turn situation not the greatest. Our J is unlikely to be good very frequently at all. In fact I think if we float here it should be with the intention of bluffing river given our blocker. We generally avoid turning showdown into bluffs where possible, but hard to see many air hands in our range on this river that float flop and turn.

River sizing seems fine. Large enough that he doesn't feel priced in with all of his showdown hands. Not so large we get a poor risk-reward ratio. I'm not sure increasing the the sizing any further will necessarily help our FE. We probably won't play our flushes like this, and we are extremely unlikely to overbet any 2pair combos.
