No reads on villan,

pre is standard,

flop i bet 80% pot as he is calling with alot of mid pocket pairs so might as well get value on them,
the turn i struggle with! do we see many calls on the flop with Ax hands? maybe AJs+ continues? but i still feel he has more pocket pairs in his range that continue flop.

is this an ok play?

OTT I've been experimenting with checking and calling my whole range in this spot and giving villain a chance to donate.

Lets say the river is different. Say a King what is your move? With a blank?

Bigger PF OOP, smaller OTF because we're going to have a lot of air on this texture, so even with range advantage I don't think we want to go large.

Check turn. I think the ace is a better card for our range (even though a lot of our Ax's should be checking flop), and that means it's really hard for villain to call his mediocre pocket pairs to a double barrel. C/c vs. c/f probably depends on sizing.

As played, I would just jam river myself. Villain shouldn't really have any pure bluffs OTR and I don't think many people at 5NL turn marginal SDV hands into bluffs in this spot. We might be able to get value out of villain's stronger Ax's with a bet but that range probably shouldn't be betting river if we check, e.g.

Bet smaller on the flop, something like 1/3. Do not bet the turn with this hand, in fact check with most of your range as it is now significantly less polarized. Shove river.
