PokerStars - $0.10 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 5 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

UTG: 214.7 BB
CO: 86.2 BB
BTN: 104.6 BB
Hero (SB): 301.9 BB
BB: 100 BB

Hero posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has K

fold, fold, fold, Hero raises to 3 BB, BB raises to 9 BB, Hero calls 6 BB

Flop: (18 BB, 2 players) 7

Hero checks, BB bets 8.6 BB, Hero calls 8.6 BB

Turn: (35.2 BB, 2 players) A

Hero checks, BB checks

River: (35.2 BB, 2 players) 5

Villain is unkown to me.
Hand is pretty standard until river I guess.

The turn should better for his range than for mine. All his semibluffs should keep on betting besides maybe Txhh or 7xhh. I assume he checks back decent sd value OTT. Maybe weak Ax or Qx.

Whats my best play OTR? Don't think weaker hands will call a bet here. Betting feels very wrong, but so does x/c if we assume he bluffs/semibluffs OTT.

I would just c/f expecting the typical 10 NL player to be too tight to bluff here. People will definitely check back hands as strong as AK on 3 broadway turns because they are afraid of 2 pair and straights. Also, villain would likely need to be turning a pair into a bluff to be bluffing on the river. Most players at these stakes are bad at turning pairs into bluffs.

Our hand is pretty strong, because he checks turn I think its unlikely he has an Ace, I woukd check looking to check call if the bets not too large, our line looks pretty weak and I think we have the towards the top of our range on the river given this line but then again if he thinks we dont have an Ace and is betting for thin value , the only hands we beat are basically 2combos of QJs. Theres a chance some players check turn with J9s or something

Don't really agree with the assessment that the A turn is good for you. EDIT: nvm misread your post

x and evaluate. Can probably call a small/medium bet but fold to a larger one
