Flop is way standard. C/ring here is pretty meh, with the board crippled.

33/66 is significantly better to c/r with, just because there are 3x as many Tx combos out there.

I know it looks a little results oriented, but I really like a turn lead, for a couple of reasons.

a) J really isn't much of a scare card, so I dunno how often he fires air.
b) A [censored] of hands just picked up gutshots or better, and he may well try to semibluff us with these draws or call incorrectly if we lead, but may take a freebie if we check.
c) The same reasons that you probably don't want to lead the lower part of your range are good reasons to lead with the top of it. [censored] balance when your reads are weak, just see what he does, and adjust from there.

I don't hate the check on occasion, but it sure sucks when he checks back for a freebie that might cost us a lot of chips.

River seems pretty standard as played. Hardly any hands that he calls a bet with that he won't bet himself.
