Preflop: Hero is BTN with K J
2 folds, CO calls $0.05, Hero raises to $0.25, SB calls $0.23, BB folds, CO calls $0.20

Flop: ($0.80) K 8 7 (3 players)
SB checks, CO checks, Hero bets $0.57, SB folds, CO calls $0.57

Turn: ($1.94) 4 (2 players)
CO checks, Hero bets $1.23, CO calls $1.23

River: ($4.40) Q (2 players)
CO checks, Hero checks

Villain seems fishy (9 Hands 44/0)
So I thought I can isolate him with KJo and hope to hit a pair and get value from it.
(if I didn't get a pair I try to bluff cbet)

Got a pair on the flop and betted for value. I expect weaker Kx, 8x and 7x and some PP in between calling this bet.

Turn I fire again for the same reason.

Would he fold this hands on the turn or call a river raise again?
I didn't know it exactly but I think bet/fold would be a good line to get maximum value from his weak hand. I think a small bet would do it hgere perfectly like 20BB bet.

Results:

Hi,

you played it fine to the river, except river i think we have value again from another bet. his range is wide hes calling many worse hands and with our hand we definitely have value.

Thanks
Xavier Fok
