Yeah you have SDV OTT because you are ahead of 77/88 and all his broadway gutshots. You'd want a club blocker to bluff this - preferably a hand like KcJx or KcQx to block his strongest Aces and flushes.

Note: He 4bets AK preflop but we don't have QJo in our 3betting range so our next best option is KJ/KQ.

I don't understand this hand after the flop. Especially the river, I don't expect hardly any hands to fold that called the turn

I think turn is a check you sometimes want to bet a more polarizing range on the turn to get it in by the river with your strong hands and put pressure with your bluffs. This hand seems more of you middle range that would do better to get to showdown cheaply.

Personally I don't mind the turn bet (check is good too), sizing seems small though (too good price for their club draws). You need many turn bluffs since you have many value hands here too and you have an incentive to deny equity. But river seems overly aggro, I think bluffs like DooDooPoker suggested make better triple barrels.

Good

though. Even though it was a punt -you get better by being overly aggressive than passive.

Always try to identify your best bluffs first. These types of PP + flushcard combos get bluffed (some frequency) on boards where you have very little SD value, like if the flop was AQ5ss and either turn or river was the Xs. On these boards you have quite a bit of valuehands but it will be hard to find enough offsuit hands with one of the flushcard. On AQ5ss you have some lower frequency KTo/KJo, that's it. While on AT5ss you have ~100% KQo + some% KTo/KJo.

OTR you will have some SD value. Even "often" you will have the better hand. Because this small bets. And this shove is little weird. "In theory"..."Bluffing with the better hand". But can't be that bad, because he will use this weaker hands for bluff sometime and you can't call. But still..The check can be 5-6bb. Value...The shove I guess something similar. Bluffing with the better hand
