Vilain is 29/17 in 24 hands and it's a donk.
I'm playing very solid but and don't think he sees anything.

Think my miss was 4b small. I think I should go like 1099 / ship flop.

Good Idea as played ship turn?

Too bad as played? Toughs...

again I think we can go a little bigger with the 4bet because when he 3x's he isn't doing it to fold to a 4bet a lot.

post seems fine

I think you played it ok. I do like to cbet flop bc he may turn 88-99 into a bluff here if you check behind because your perceived range is KK and that's about it. I'd rather not play a guessing game

would you rather bet 600 on the flop so he folds 99 or call 600 on the turn when he still has 99 in his range?

pre is fine...more is ok too but I am fine with the sizing
flop is fine...betting seems pointless...only reason to bet is to block a bluff
turn is fine
I am tempted to call river

i like it all, jamming turn > betting flop imo. we can get 1 street of air/weaker hands and maybe get some weak Ax to b/f that are leveling themself.

We have 2nd pair in a 4bet pot 90 bb's deep. We're crushing a decent part of his range but that's the part he folds when we bet the flop.

If we are calling all turns we get value from some of the stuff he folds on the flop and there's a number of turns that give us decent equity against the stuff we're behind. Kings are the nuts, all spades give us the nut flush draw and we have backdoor straight equity too.

Calling the turn is >> jamming turn unless we really expect someone to fold Ax getting >2/1 in a 4bet pot?

depends on how he interprets the line + we block 50% of AK combinations . its def very interesting imo.

Villains described as a donk. I doubt he's thinking about kickers if the reads accurate.
