i would 3bet to like ~36 all day vs someone who sits short and obv is a donk.

i don't understand how you would ever not raise pf but anyway, don't think this is ever a bluff but you still beat J10, J9, J8, J7, J6, J4 and AK, A5, A3. you lose to some sets, monster fullhouse and 24o.

i think i would jam vs his minraise. because im unable to lay down if i raise him and this way i get more value in case he has a weaker J and lose the same vs monsters.

if he wasnt 4/6 stack i think i would just call river.

why didn't you bet flop?

I should have but was opening tables at the time and kinda autopiloted through the flop; also why i just checked pre.

I don't give up huge amounts with the line i took though and it has upsides

my play is really bad if i think he might pot control a bad ace on the flop or find a fold to a c/r (but not fold if i just lead into him multiple streets). From what i had seen though he almost always minbet the flop when limping so i was just like w/e ill let him start with that.

you must be new to HU, I'd raise pre, I'm also betting all streets and value mini 3-betting river like $15-20 total basically price him in to callling with 100% of his value range and if he folds you know hes bluffing which is good info too

and yea i am new to Hu.

on river I of course did raise and he flatted with Kj

everything suck in that hand
