I would not be raising the turn. Definitely don't bet the river. The only thing I can possibly see him folding river with is a worse FD, given the river card. Regardless, I still wouldn't be bluffing an over. Use this as a reminder to bet as thinly as possible versus these fish.

By SDV, is that defined as A high? does it have to be more than just A high, or can it be less?

His charts are solved, so I'd say so

I think too aggro, I will call OTT. Sometime I also do that. Vs some people. But this size is huge. And this board...Only FD is weaker, but no Ax, 9x FD, I think this raise is not good. I do such a raise with plan to check-back OTR (not with fD ofc). But here maybe is better to bet, so little showdown value.

I don't like the board for raise. I will call. I guess your bet OTR is good.

You should be bluffing a decent percentage of the time. This guy just made a solid call-down in this hand.
