Q. Was my check behind too tight?

A. Against a 90% VPIP player, yes. Realistically I'm only losing to KT which is 16 combos. I'm beating Ax AJ, QJ, KQ, QT, J9, JT etc. Bet 2/3 next time.

Bet river all day. If he had KT you would've heard about it by that point.

You can expect these players to be extremely straight forward so the chances of him having sets/KT are almost nonexistent.

Players with such high vpip generally raise flop/turn and dont wait till river. So you should bet river

I'm going minimum 2/3 against this player and probably bigger, he's not gonna fold AJ/QJ maybe even J9 or a random ace
