Information
I had the villain tagged as a recreational

My thoughts
This is obviously a very polarised play and so I think its fair to rule out any value we beat such as just Kx. We have a bluff catcher.
I think villains value is pretty clear: flushes, K7, 77, 67s, 66, 44. KK we can assume would always 4 bet pre. Of this value, we block none of it.
Although villain shouldn't have all of these, at least not at full frequency, I think given they are recreational we can assume a wider preflop range.

Then for bluffs I guess we are just looking at hands with one spade? Of which I assume this should only really be with the As?

Its hard to tell if villain has value or bluffs in this line because its so unorthodox. However, my intuition tells me this is a recreational who doesn't want to miss value rather than a recreational trying to bluff. Especially given my uncapped range we have to assume this to be extremely strong.

Thoughts?

If villain is a recreational I would Cbet flop around half pot or even more for value.
The rest seems pretty standard. Off course the over bet shove is really weird on the river for more than 2 times pot.
Not sure villain would defend a hand like K7 in a 3bet pot ppre-flop and 44 seems unlikely as well.
In general it seems unlikely villain is bluffing and he/she needs to over play Kx to think off calling.

Thanks for the response.
Yeah I agree that exploitatively sizing up on the flop is a good strategy.

I think K7s and 44 are completely reasonable though. A standard range should not have these no. However, given the river action we can assume this player is very, very recreational and so most likely has a wider than expected, sticky preflop range.

Could be indeed. K7 seems more likely than 44. You would expect 44 would fold at least the turn with 2 outs.
