hmm so sick spot.. smells like blocking bet.. i think its a call because we are getting extremly good price to call but on the other hand we are not winning vs many handss.. maybe hope for a chop or for villan to have smth like 67(although we have a blocker) btw i like betting like 210-250 on the flop

cbet more.

Betting less than half pot on this board with these stack sizes with this hand is bad

I make a huge raise here. Not because it's +EV or anything. Just because **** him, that's why.

I mean you can argue semantics but thats basically what this is.

Id just call river - I dont think we fold TT/JJ/better 9x enough against a random in a 50 fo to raise here.

i think its not rare at all, if i am villain and i have 2pairs+ in this board i can easily bet around 400 in 2300 pot when the A hits the river because if Hero has air, i think most of the times hero will raise here OTR with the A because that A hits a lot the range that villain perceives Hero to have ( and hero knows this).. i dont know if i am clear with mi conept because i am starting to speak engliush, but i think its not "absurd" at all.

and when i say "balance" is because i will bet 400 sometimes with 9x to have a cheap showdown and sometimes with2pair+

i agree maybe its a bit of "levelation" ajajajajaj but in the previous post i put " if villain is a good reg", i never use that thoughts with a "random".
