Hi there,
pre flop standard
Flop standard
Turn I would say call is fine, raise should be alright as well.
River,

What is the weakest hand i can valueshove on the river? What is my opponents weakest hand that can call my river shove?
Let's do some math:
Villain has to call ~45% of the time our shove to prevent us from making a profitable bluff with any two cards.
If he bets river with this range:
AA, TT-99, AcKc, AcQc, AcJc, QcJc, AcTc, QcTc, JcTc, Ac9c, Qc9c, Jc9c, Tc9c, Ac8c, Qc8c, Jc8c, Tc8c, 9c8c, Ac7c, Qc7c, Jc7c, Tc7c, 9c7c, 8c7c, Ac6c, Qc6c, Jc6c, Tc6c, 9c6c, 8c6c, 7c6c, Ac5c, Qc5c, Jc5c, Tc5c, 9c5c, 8c5c, 7c5c, 6c5c, 6c4c, 5c4c, Ac3c, Qc3c, Jc3c, 4c3c, Ac2c, Qc2c, Jc2c, KdQc, KhQc, KsQc, KcQd, KcQh, KcQs, KcJd, KcJh, KcJs, Kc8d, Kc8h, Kc8s, QdJc, QhJc, QsJc, QcJd, QcJh, QcJs, Qc8d, Qc8h, Qc8s
(it's irrelevant that I put KcXx in his bluff range, I'm just trying to give him a balanced betting range that has close to 2 to 1 value to bluffs ratio).
So he'd have to call 45% top of this range, and that leaves with the worst hand he's calling is 8c5c, and his calling shove river range is something like this (so he should actually fold some of his baby flushes):
AcKc, AcQc, AcJc, QcJc, AcTc, QcTc, JcTc, Ac9c, Qc9c, Jc9c, Tc9c, Ac8c, Qc8c, Jc8c, Tc8c, 9c8c, Ac7c, Qc7c, Jc7c, Tc7c, 9c7c, Ac6c, Qc6c, Jc6c, Tc6c, 9c6c, Ac5c, Qc5c, Jc5c, Tc5c, 9c5c, 8c5c, Ac3c, Qc3c, Jc3c, Ac2c, Qc2c, Jc2c
So the range that you can value shove river is the range that has more than 50% equity versus this range, which is: AcKc, AcQc, AcJc, Ac8c, Kc8c, Ac7c, Kc7c, Ac6c, Kc6c, Ac5c, Kc5c, Ac4c, Kc4c, Ac3c, Kc3c (of course you don't have AcKc AcQc).
This might not be 100% accurate and might be screwing up this ranges but I think this is fairly close and we find out that we cannot shove profitably a hand like Qxs. It's relevant to say that shoving Qc4c is much better than shoving QcJc (since we don't block villains calling range that we win) QcJc has only 14% equity whereas Qc4c has 46%!

What's the best with sets?
Raise flop most likely. If we call flop and turn brings a flush we cannot raise anymore, just call down.
