hero......???

I didn't want to raise flop or turn because the board should hit opponent's range and it felt like many bad turn and river cards, do you think this was inaccurate thinking? I guess we have OESD..

a random limp/calling range will have so many one pair hands that you dominate on QJT that you could also bet, downside of checking is that they can just check those hands back and stuff like 9x

x/decide river, i'd call a ~halfpot bet propably

yeh, there's some pretty thick value to be had vs fishy here (and obv large range advantage but w/e).

plus pot controlling is less important when a bunch of the cards that change the board are actually good/fine for your hand.

could consider giving him some dark magic $0.10 river lead here.

flop looks scary but I think we really want to bet flop, hand is still quite strong vs. limping range

What type of range are we putting UTG on ? UTG really isnt a thing but from my experience when people do it they usually have pairs or suited aces or suited connectors. I think we can eliminate AA/KK/QQ though as those are usually gonna back raise plus you have half the kings. Always betting the river versus this villain. They will probably check behind all their worse hands and have plenty worse hands that will call a bet

I'd bet higher pre oop.

Bet flop. The board hits your range better than it hits his. You have the nut straight & all sets + some 2p.
What does he have?

I'd x/c or x/f depending on bet size
