Villain is PokerSoccer. We haven't really tangled, but I've seen him around the forums. He's run pretty laggy at around 35/28/3.5 over a few hundred datamined stats. He is sitting about 350BB deep, having gotten his stack before I sat down. Hero should be viewed as taggy.

Flop is favourable. We can raise against AK/AQ/KQ for value, and we have a lot of outs against AA/KK/QQ. Of course, villain is so laggy that even his UTG range will include worse hands that haven't connected, but will still cbet with. Villain's call narrows his range to big jacks (JQ/JK/AJ), overpairs, sets, and OESD/NFD.

On river I am wondering if villain is tricky enough to try and check/raise a jack. Obv I haven't hit my draw, and am bluffing. If he was ahead on the flop, he still is now. I decide that there is very little chance he checks a jack, and I can accurately represent one, having checked behind on the turn, showing weakness. If he had NFD, he hit his ace on the turn, and I feel would likely bet. Obv we would have heard from KQ and boats by now too. So I feel this bet has a decent chance of taking the pot away from, say QQ/KK.
