I'll keep Hero's hand hidden. Became apparent by the river I'd only win by leading, so I'm basically asking what range we should expect to be called by & what will fold.
Villain: Mid 30's player from Europe. Likely plays online, or has tons of live experience. No real reads as V's been on table for 2 or 3 orbits, but info has been picked up through V table talking with another European national.
$1K eff.
V opens $20 in CO, SB calls, H 3bets $80 in BB, V calls, fold.
Flop $174
23Qr
H leads $90, V calls.
Turn: $354
Kx
check, check
River: $353

Hero leads $200...

I like it. V should have quite a few mid PPs that peeled one on the flop in position that now can't beat any combination of broadway cards that Hero could potentially have.
He probably gets to the river with, and folds 44-99, JJ, QJs (Maybe).
He probably raises or bets sets and KQ at some point, so his range to get to the river and call or raise: AQ, AK (possibly peels one streets on the flop), TT, QTs. Maybe give him a couple combos of 22 and 33 that got a bit mubsy and pot control checked the turn. maybe give him 1 combo of AJ that floated the flop.

I'm not convinced this river bet is going to work very often here....
Villans 3bet calling range will be something like:
77-qq ak, aq, aj, at, kq...
Not a whole bunch more: maybe qj, kj,
If he is playing like most llsnl players
We really don't get many folds from whole lot of that by this river:
At, 77 88 99 JJ and maybe qj, aq....although I would call with a bare q here....

3bet probably a bit small.
Your hand looks like you had a piece on the turn, because that card was so good to bluff on. It looks like you have AQ, roughly. I'd expect to get called by a queen or better. I'd be a bit worried about getting jammed on though because it seems unlikely you can have strong hands here other than TT.
If you want to bluff I'm confused about why you didn't just barrel the turn.
