Villain is solid but often quite stationy and likes to bluff. My reasoning to raise the flop cbet was that I mainly could fire again on any straight or flush draw on the turn. I expect villain to float quite some hands, so I decided to continue to bluff representing the full house. I think it's quite spewy, especially with a K high. What do you think of the cbet flop raise and the line in general?

Thinking more about this hand and the river definitely is a spew. Don’t know for sure in this position, but let’s make the statement that we know for sure villain will overcall my flop raise and will over cbet this board.

Should we be raising flop with this hand? Should we call? Both seem a bit awkward with this hand.

As villain overcalls flop raise, would the overbet be justified on the turn?

We have so many natural hands we could bluff with (straight draws) that we're already over-bluffing if we raise all of those on the flop. Then you realize that he's on the button and in his preflop range he has a lot of 9's and some 6's. If he's stationy, he won't be folding his overpair either.

Yeah dont bluff against someone who stations river should be pretty obvious.

Generally if a hand isnt good enough to call flop you cant raise it. Definitely raise very aggressively here BTN vs BB especially vs regs rangebetting.

Flop is too small (just half pot or 3x) turn sizing is too big.

If you define villain as "quite stationy", why do you try to bluff him? The turn is bad for you, villain will be more likely to call you down with A high. I'd give up there and hope to check it down. K high might even be good, at least for a chop.
