I am not sure if the hand is played well. I think hitting the K on the river was more variance than anything. What would I have done without the K? Bluff shoved? I dont like the raise on the turn. Makes not too much sense - trying to fold out his holdings with this move? How would you play it better?

I'm not too good, but i think turn, you can flat, we wouldn't always expect Ax to bet here, but some people will, and there should be enough air to bluff catch. I think we have to jam most rivers but hard to tell without any information like, how wide hes 3betting, and what hands he checks back flops with or bets.

how do you think villain constructs his 3betting range? What is his 3bet %? Is he a fish or a decent player? Once he checks the flop he rarely has a value hand unless he is a thinking player and thinks that flop is very likely to miss your 3bet calling range and is checking to induce you to bet. I would start by betting the flop and 3 barreling off considering his most likely hand is Ax that will check call this flop and fold turn.

i actually like prefer the turn raise over a flop bet, since imo he is never folding on the flop, and he might on the turn. The only other option i can see here is double barreling. on the river you could value bet for around 400 to get a call maybe? and if its not a K or Q, your bet would depend on how much is he likely to call with A high, depending on previous hands and stuff, as well as how lightly does he calls on this spots.

I'm with FirEontheMountIn13, bet flop and turn and river unless you end up sensing strength.

As played the river bet doesn't target any of his range. I would go into exploitive mode, bet very small with KQ and biggish with QJ.

Quite opponent dependent. Triple barreling is an interesting option that might not work very well against a thinking player but $15 regs might not be that strong, so I don't hate it. As played I prefer flatting his turn bet, you are ahead of his range sometimes, and floating here and bluffing on the river just works better than bluffing right away on the turn imo because you rep a very narrow range by raising on turn.

Also, bet small on the river as played. Jamming here is a mistake.
