Edit: Swear I know how to spell "deceptive"
In game I'm pretty sure I quickly checked back thinking it's standard, but upon review I'm having doubts.
The opener is a reg i play against a lot whom I've noted is fishy and stabby.
I think we definitely have SDV here.
But I also think V is uncapped and in fact may be (perhaps the equilibrium solution even) checking entire range OTF.
Hero has to varying degrees {22-88 (we might not have 99), A2s-A8s, lots of flushes, AcXo, KcQo, 65s, 54s} Where I'm really being thrown for a loop is figuring out my raising range OTT. I'm starting to think we shouldn't have one, at least that's where my estimate of the equilibrium strategy is tending towards.
While it's true flushes may wanna raise, the converse is also true. Nut flushes block lots of V's calling range and hence have incentive to just flat. Non-nut flushes aren't necessarily good nor can we raise all flushes
(not or non-nut) lest out flatting range become too weak. Sets, straights, 2pr may wanna raise, or maybe not--again, V is likely uncapped here.
Think these arguments also hold for betting flop. I see no reason to start splitting my range at this point in the hand.
So they way I'm starting to see it is: we simply can't have a raising range OTT. At the very least, no hand is a pure raise and the frequency with which we enter the raising node is very small.
If the above is true, then once we get to the river we now have a merged range with every hand in that range benefiting from jamming (a hand like 7c7h can get some overpairs to fold), so perhaps we can just jam entire range and have that be the highest EV strategy instead of splitting our range into x's and jams (doubt we can go less than jam with any hand that wants to bet, be it for value or as a bluff). V can't call just flushes lest he get run over, and it's dubious he's uncapped now having checked river against a range which contains hands that'll pay off his nutted hands, so hero can definitely go for value as light as a set or even 2pr here expecting to get called at decent freq by overpairs blocking a flush in particular.
If we jam, V's bluffcatchers have ~36% equity vs our entire range which essentially makes them perfectly indifferent to calling.
So my point is: anyone jamming river instead of checking it back?
Also what should our raising range look like OTT, if it exists at all?
Anyone betting flop?
