Not sure about flop. Bet is good i think but maybe sizing is too big.

Very weird line from V OTR. Can't think why he wouldnt stab turn if he wanted to bluff so my guess is a badly played monster. At 2nl though we can call and see some awful spews.

Why did you sized flop bet so big and then checked turn? Did you plan to CR him?
Only hand that makes sense to me to play like villain is 65, as I think people would bet their strong hands on this turn, so I would call here and expect a lot of random hands, KQ, AQ, maybe QJ and missed draws..

Flop isnt that dry, so I would want to bet my value hands bigger and I cant depend sizing on my holdings. Plan was to fire second barrel only on a heart or any broadway card. I would have xf to a bet on that turn. That are my thoughts, but I'm not sure if they are right

I think its well played. River probably needs to be a call, I can't imagine we have any better hands than this one.

If youre bluffing with AQo here youre probably going to be bluffing quite wide and betting a lot of your range so if youre using this sizing for all of them I think that could ultimately be problematic, but it's only a minor point.

I'm not even sure about the 3b pre-flop. AQ plays well against a button raise, but not so well against a 4 bet. Why not just call here?

OTF you can call with your overcards and 2 backdoors.

OTT he probably would have xed as he did here.

OTR easy call for a small pot.

I don't even think its close between calling and 3b. We are OOP with a very strong hand against a position that will defend a 3b very wide or fold and give us un-raked chips.

Yes, like all of his range. He's only starting with 16%. So the 3bet is useless.

It's a 200bb pot. Do you think it's a small pot because it's 2nl?
