Hi tomsom87

First, I don't see a reason to underbet the flop deeper. I'd bet and try to set it up better for turn/river.

As played, on the river we lose to the same hands that we lost to on the turn (and now split with AQ/KQ) so that doesn't change. What changes is what we could get value from which is really nothing.

So back to the check, once he shoves, what is he repping? Can he turn anything into a bluff? What can he value bet? Anything worse or just splits and better hands?

My answer to that would be that it's hard to find a bluff so we need to find worse value hands. Well there aren't any worse value hands either. So we call to split or lose to hands like AJ/TJ/TT/KJ and split with AQ/KQ (best case).

AJ = 3 combos, TJs = 1 combo, TT = 3 combos, KJ = 3 combos so a total of about 10 combos.

AQ is 9 combos, KQ is another 9 combos.

So best case scenario we have about double the amount of splits than we do hands that beat us. So 2/3 of the time we split the pot (so we make ~$20) and 1/3 we lose the rest of the money ($46). As you can see it's not worth a call.
