checking river is ok here?

I like it. Villian probably had some sort of worse 6 or a worse flush draw. It's a weird spot if villian shoves the river, but in a $2 spinner without history, I think it's a fold.

betting river too thin here? seems like I wont get called by worse often.

Very clear check on the turn.

Are we checking to induce? Or pot control? Are we x/c? We have to right?

This hand is way too weak to induce. You're checking because you have showdown value. There are hardly any hands to get value from and you hardly need protection. Ofc call if you check.

What about protecting our barreling range? Or...that's not what I mean.

I decided to bet vs. Check because I will bet twice with most of my range on that flop and turn.

Bottom pair isn't in my double barreling range normally but with flush outs I decided to bet. From villains perspective I think that he will think on A67ss Ax that most of my range is polarized to high cards or nuts (Ax) so if he is bluff catching me sometimes then shouldn't I have hands that beat bluff catchers in my range? Am I over thinking it?

Reason I ask is you seem very knowledgeable and reply to most of my posts so I respect your opinion.

I agree with check on the turn for sure.

First of all, you shouldn't worry about balance against fish, unless you play him frequently. Just try to play max exploitative. In this hand that means only betting the turn with trips and maybe betting on the smaller side with like K7 of hearts (for value/protection). Don't bluff this turn. Basically, if you bet your hand here, you're turning it into a bluff. You might even lose to some of his bluff-catchers (weak 7x). There's no need to do that. If villain thinks you are polarized here with plenty of air in your range, you are already exploiting him, as every time he bluff-catches you have a stronger hand.

ok thanks, I tend to over-think thin spots sometimes. I appreciate it.
