I only have 230 hands on Villain, he is running a 32/21/12 with a 74% fold to 3bet.
Not interested in preflop, but open to discussion on our flop line. I think I'm check/calling the flop with my worse queens and some Tx hands that I may 3bet squeeze in this spot. Therefore, I chose to bet the flop with TPTK.
What is our play on the turn?
$0.50 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 5 players
BTN: $73.05
Hero (SB): $68.22
BB: $47.75
UTG: $52.49
CO: $60.76 (Villain)
Hero posts SB $0.25, BB posts BB $0.50
Pre Flop: Hero has AdQs
fold
CO raises to $1.50
BTN calls $1.50
Hero raises to $6.00
fold
CO calls $4.50
fold
Flop: Ts 5h Qd
Hero bets $7.75
CO calls $7.75
Turn: 8s
Open to almost all options on the turn.
Thx

I think his range pre-flop can be a little wide if he is loose or suspicious of squeeze plays, particularly in this spot.
The only way I can see him having an over pair is if the button is a fish and he wants to keep him in, otherwise I expect him to 4-bet.
So, on the flop, we hit TPTK and I like the bet. He calls so he may have qualified with something like ATs, JJ, KQ, or he might be floating to see if he can pinch it on the turn. He may have hit a set of Ts, but I expect us to be ahead a decent amount of the time.
The 8 is not really a scare card but I can't see him calling worse than TP. If you think he will call JJ or AT then bet for value.
If we check we give him a chance to bluff, but it might lead to tough decision on the river, probably check-calling unless a K comes.
I'm in favour of check-calling the turn and the check-calling most rivers.
If he checks back the turn then we can bet the river for value.
