Apart from becoming hugely unbalanced if you bet KJo here you're just going to get floated too often for cbet/give-up to be profitable.
Probably all V's AX call a flop bet and they beat you at showdown. The following all continue flop and either beat you at showdown or have lots of equity: pocket pair or board pair, any X6s/X2s, any XYss, maybe overcards in diamonds, maybe X7dd.
So he's going to continue a lot on this flop which means you'll have to double barrel a lot of turns. But you've got to dodge spades, diamonds, Aces, Twos, Sixes and Sevens before you're going to want to bluff turn.
So you can't bet flop. You obviously can't X/C flop. X/R flop with air would be extremely unbalanced (both mentally and combinatorially) so you've just got to X/F.
This sounds good. Thanks.
In the actual hand, I bet $100 and he folded. But afterwards, I thought about the hand and realized that I am very unbalanced with that bet.
