there are small chances that we lose to sets, 2 pairs, & AA
most of the time we are against lesser pairs, flush draw & straight draw
so i mostly just 3 barrel my normal bets 1/3 - 1/2 pot, but the check on the river is reasonable enough for possible sets slowplay vs known vilain

In a lot of cases we will be looking to check raise here, but given your extra equity it's probably fine to just build the pot. I like the turn barrel, on the river I think you can go for value pretty often here, KJ is the only real threat, I guess the occasional pocket sixes but not that often as they will raise them sometimes, it kinda sucks if you get jammed on, but you'll also be putting villain in a tough spot with a lot of his Kx or even strong Jx hands like AJ.

Overall good hand but I think we can go for value on the river here that lots of people miss out on

Yeah agree is fine, but can throw out a third barrel vs many villains here and a get a call from worse. Not all villains though, so sometimes I don't mind the check with a good read.

Thank you for posting

What BB range calls that big a bet on flop?
What range does the BB expect you to bet that size if you normally check that flop?

Why would 2 pair or a set not raise turn?

Why would a set let you check behind on the river?

Is there any range that we can get value from on the river and what sizing do we use to get that value?

If we missed our flush draw would we not bluff? to get JX to fold?

Hope this helps
