Well I would defend this one too. Calling flop is resonable this deep and with a chance of the best hand. River bet is ok or yoi nees to bet more.

Seems well played. Personally I would size it bigger on river as flushes are such big portion of your value range. Some other value hands would be AQ or possibly some two pairs depending how wide you defend pre. QJ and such I would keep in river check range.

This is pretty much weakest hand you can show up on river and you do block hands like AA, AQ, QJ and nut flush so it's good bluff combo. Sure we might win by checking and I would be check-folding if flush draw didn't complete.

It's interesting to know what your own Though proccess was during the hand, but the line you take seems decent. Off course it's tough to bluff against a random 50c player. Most of the time I would check/fold river against a unknown.

Thanks all :)
So I bluffed River for 2/3 of pot, should it be like 3/4 maybe?

SDK1987 my thought process roughly:
Preflop: AJo oop not a dream spot vs UTG opening range but 3:1 odds at 75BBs deep to see the Flop seemed ok :f_biggrin:
Flop: I don't think I'm ahead but calling for multiple backdoor outs
Turn: after he checks behind this particular card, I immediately assume he not that strong
River: Don't wanna check and loose to AK so I take a stab

He had K♥:Q♥: btw :)
