Preflop and flop is standard imo. It's the turn that I'm questioning. I don't have a ton of hands against this player, but he seems very nitty. Because of this i think his continuing range is going to be high pocket pairs and AK, maybe AQs? Not sure if he would call with any suited connectors here.

Considering his stats I don't think this player will the bluffing type. So after he calls the flop he either has a set, maybe AJs or an overpair like QQ-AA. The turn gives QQ a set as well. If he has AJ i don't see the sense in him bluffing here. AQ floating the flop makes no sense, no flushdraws or anything. So i assume hes betting for value here, the question is what that means for him. I don't see a value hand that we beat, and maybe i should just fold the turn honestly, but that seems so weak.. As played i def think river is a fold, i don't see anything i beat but bluffs at this point, and tight players usually don't go for the mega river bluff-shoves.

Thoughts?

I think you should just bet turn. He would have raised sets OTF and he has AQ in his range. We cannot assume anything based on 27 hands. You kind of under rep your hand here and I think he could actually have a worse hand OTR but calling this is close.

Bet turn and x/c or x/f river depending on the river card and villains sizing.

Do not check the turn with the likely best holding unless you have a good reason (eg. you know that when you check he will barrel a lot of turns + rivers as a bluff). You only have 27 hands on villain so you should not have a good reason to check turn.

Yeah i like bet/folding the turn more than check/calling. The river is just an awful spot though :f_mad:

I like betting the turn. There are weaker hands that will call 2 streets.
As played, call and make a note.

I would have called.
Also I would be bigger on flop and turn.
Check river only to incude shove and then ofc call it.
You just can´t relay on your stats. Maybe he lost a 2 outer on one of his other tables and now he is steaming?
Next time I think you should try to get all in on turn. If he has aces then it´s force of poker and you can´t handel it.
But if he has QQ. You might win sometimes
I hope I made any sense

Villain would have 4bet aces pre so those are quite unlikely :)

Noooo, slowplay is really really bad Especially now when so many are interested in this hand. The more players see the flop, the bigger is the chance someone hits something strong.

You are right that it is bad.
