i wrote a response thinking the turn was a blank and didnt understand ILPs responses somewhat. now that i read the board correctly im with ilp. I havent stoved it but the turn with QJs is probably somewhat close but a call if villain is betting 66+ PPs and AJ+ non paired hands.

bet fold QJs and ck fold AKo both seem good. I think AQ hi calls a donk here a ton.

He should check/call with both. When he takes a passive approach I think a good chunk of his range is AQ type hand, and I'm liable to bluff the river with KQ occasionally.

Edit: What's the worst hand you call Hero's river donk with?

I think most TAGs are calling ace high all the time, I would only bluff occasionally if villain is one of the better TAGs who is capable of folding ace high once he gets to the river with it.

I think most tags call with AK/AQ all day. AJ meh, I dunno. The thing is it's hard to see weaker Aces like A8 getting that far w/out a FD so when he does call the turn you def. have to include small/medium pockets in his range. Hero worrying about getting bluffed by K high is sorta paranoia since preflop limits such possibilities to KQ exclusively.

All the responses confused me, I thought you were gonna spew c/r.

Hero should bet/fold QJ (flush). If I bet the turn I have at least A-hi and am not folding. I'll probably call KJ and better. I'll check behind most of these hands except I'd bet AK and maybe AQ for value.

Intuitively, I think he should check/call AK to catch AK and AQ, but with as wide a range as I'm calling here, bet/fold is better. But he should cap AK preflop.
