i run good and play bad
Benyamine is teh spot in this game. CO is hyperaggressive, but i don't 3bet bc he won't be 4betting lite very often, and my hand becomes a bluff.
I'm halfstacking on the other table and not reloading, so they know I'm probably a bit scared money this deep. SB has been 3betting me frequently despite generally being a huge nit. He's clearly loosened up knowing I am gonna be fairly tight. I've 4bet him twice and both times he folded. I expect him to squeeze quite often in this spot, bc I'll have junk I don't always wanna defend.
Again I think 4betting is turning into a bluff, and this hand plays superwell postflop, so ya.
Ok Flop seems like an obvious flat, because my raising range is really tight and when I raise it's gonna look strong as, and I'm guessing he'll fold a ton of hands except AK and AA. Maybe KQ.
My question is, whats our best turn action, giving I think he thinks we'll likely check back a lot of showdownable hands like KQ n stuff. problem is if we check back we can't get our stack in on the river vs AA AK KQ, but can we really stack those anyway?

Don't overthink yourself. Just bet enough to set up river shove and let him worry about what he'll call with.

lets say u check back and then raise him on non heart river, would he be able to put u on any bluff hand with the line ? or is your pf play taking those hands our of your range?

nah i think pf can include missed draws n crap, and I think he'd think im more likely 2 bluff river than to float-2barrel, though i may be wrong. also advantage of float 2-b is that we may get at least 1 bet out of him, but I think he himself is often double barreling the top of his range because he doesnt expect me to float.

I'm not sure how much u bet on turn so it's hard to say what a good bet on the river might be.Probably shove?
I'm not sure I give this guy AA,AK here tho, looks morel ike Q-Q or something. Not saying this changes anything for you cos u beat that hand, but might alter your bet size on river ?
fwiw, i like turn betting too, cos its harder for him to give u credit for a monster when u only flat on such a draw heavy board.
