I think I can probably just check the flop instead of betting but it can be difficult identifying a limp calling range, something I need to study more. I know there can be different types of limping ranges, some are tight some are loose etc. but I need more study on them.

OTF if he has wide limping range I think we have a-lot of equity, depending on how loose the villain is I think he could call the flop bet light with a hand like A2s, A5s, maybe some 65s, then he has the 65s, weaker PP's and his Qx.

OTT I think its not the best card because A2s and 65s are straight, he may even flat pre with all 16 combos of A2. I think he could have an abundance of flushes and also some 55. I was wondering if we can bet for thinner value/protection here and chickened out. OTR bad card and clear fold.

Flop is dry and tough to get better hand to fold or value.

It depends on the villain in this hand I would Cbet or check behind.

River is a fold or you expect villain can change hands in to a bluff.
