Opponent is a tightish reg, like 20/16/4 pf. Fold to 3bet around 64%.
My question is what is a good balanced betsize here? I am definately bluffing here quite some (mid pairs, missed flushes, ...), I am almost definately valuebetting Ax here, I am rarely valuebetting KQ or weaker though.
there is a light at the end of the tunnel... (but sometimes the tunnel is long and deep as hell)

Basically I was thinking either shove or like 1/2 pot or check entire range, but dunno.

If you want a balanced size here id probably jam but idk i tend to not worry about balanced sizing in this spot if your not going to be in this spot very often against an ok reg..

i guess jamming is fine if u jam ur whole range, which is a slight overbet
Im not sure what to do tomorrow when I see her, should I shake her hand?? -Floofy

Really dont like a shove, we are most likely against a pretty weak range and that A coming would have hit us way more than him, but without history im not really sure we can check and hope he turns JJ into a bluff to get us off Kx, but I think a small bet would be better with our entire range, that I assume is more value oriented.

are you assuming we have a hand? i mean when im shoving this river most of the time i DONT have a hand, and its only when I know that someone is capable of making cool hero calls that ill start mixing in 1/2 pot bets and c/fs. also im c/c a good Ax some of the time on the turn, so that decreases the likelyhood of the A hitting my range, but thats just me.

So what would your range be here for shoving the river?

I mean Im not asking you to get specific but I cant imagine having more air than value hands, that would imply shoving every single missed FD and a lot of pure bluffs on top.

jam seems fine but would be a little more comfortable if you just bet bigger on flop and turn
One day good. One day bad. And some days, even hope

Hm. sorry, but I'm curious as to people's thoughts. What possible hands could Crazy-Mary hold right here? We know CM has position on Hero so CM may have a bit of a larger range after calling a 3-bet. But calling each street? A king? KQ? What possible hands are a likely possibility given CM's play?
I'd say KJ, call call both streets. Ax clubs or spades, floating flop/chasing flush draw. The part that concerns me is that with your 3-barrel+jam, the only hand CM is calling with is probably one that caught the flush? So would a slightly overbet jam still be a "valuebet" here?

Without some history my range here is usually more bluff oriented.
