V utg+2 is 40 yo rec who really loves the game, uses the term solver and fold equity at the table. He has a few leaks but def one of the better recs. Able to make big folds and hero calls too.
H mp should be viewed as tag. I have some history with V, he likes to talk poker hands with me at the table. I respond honestly most of the time. We are friendly.

V opens 30, i have AhJh and 3bet to 100, v calls
Flop (215)
KcTd9h
V checks, i x back?
Turn KcTd9h 4d (215)
V bets 60, knowing V this is usually a small/medium pair block bet and rarely a draw, I call? looking to bluff diamonds or make my hand
River KcTd9h 4d9c (335)
V checks, i x back
I thought river would be a small ev mistake probably. In my head i thought he would just shrug call seeing that diamonds missed. But solver sees it as a huge mistake.
I think most of my value bets will get called so its a bit counter-intuitive to bluff here no? Did i make a huge mistake checking back?

I think I c-bet the flop.
On the turn, villain's strong made hand should be betting bigger than 1/3 in theory. The block bet seems like a marginal hand that's not looking to face a bigger delayed cbet from h and may fold to a raise.
AP, I'm not sure I like raising turn. Folding seems too weak and for that sizing I think we have to continue to the river since we're still drawing to the nuts and maybe have more outs vs some portion of villains range.
River is interesting. As I was reading the hand, I thought hero called turn to bluff river. I don't think our ace high is good here. Villain's line seems congruent with a PP under 9, some Tx (JT, QT, maybe AT) and maybe AQ at a low frequency.
If I got to the river like hero did, I think I am turning my hand into a bluff and target 66-88, some weak Tx type of range. I think targeting a T is fine. We'll play QQ/JJ this way.
If I'm in villains shoes, and I play QQ/JJ this way, I'm not folding to most normal sizing on the river btw. That's 7 combos, and those combos block the nuts. But block value may not mean much on the river. Based on how the hand was played, neither player should have QJ in range.
