Default How do you make any $ here?

I'm somehow playing 12/9 on this table over 50ish hands and not really getting any cards. Villian here is playing 30/25. I can never figure out how to make any $ when this turn card hits.

Full Tilt Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.50/$1 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter)

SB: $112.80
Hero (BB): $127.30
UTG: $27.35
MP: $196.85
CO: $200.00
BTN: $141.20

Preflop: Hero is dealt K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (6 Players)
UTG folds, <font color="red">MP raises to $3.50</font>, CO calls $3.50, 2 folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $14.50</font>, MP calls $11.00, CO folds

Flop: ($33) T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $25.00</font>, MP calls $25.00

Turn: ($83) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)

as usual turn goes check check and river I bet $40 and he tanks and folds. gah. Is this a good spot for a fake blocker of like $20? That seems so donkey but probably works.

if you bet this turn when you have air or cant beat Tx, you should be betting it here too

I don't mind a fake blocker, he could have AhXh though and he's def not folding that.

How do you make any $ here? You already made 40bb's. Unless he has AhXh you're likely not making any more. Just bet.

You played this well. I like the turn check as betting will only scare off hands such as Tx and 88 etc.

Actually, I would shove. $50 looks like what it is, which is a value bet. Push is a value bet he might think is a bluff and call 1-2 more times out of 100.

check turn and type into chatbox 'OMFG HOW DO THESE DONKEYS ALWAYS SUCKOUT ON ME HYACHACHACHA'

actually, as uve shown mental instability this may cause villain to never bluff here hence it would be an excellent comment to make if you had KK/QQ. itd be kinda like a blocking bet, without the bet part.

I kinda like $40, it leaves $40 on the river.. a pot-sized shove looks scarier, I mean, you could check turn and shove river.. but I think 40 gets a call more than a shove, and if 40 gets a call twice as often, you break even if he folds *all* rivers.. but sometimes he'll call.
