Villian is running 34/24 after 50 hands. My image is fairly TAG and I am running 20/14 at the time of the hand. Good flop and turn to two barrel on imo. Got there on river so going for value. What do you guys make of the check/raise on the river? I have to call after I put out 3300 on riv bet. Thoughts?

I believe ur flop cbet couldve been less, like 400-600. The board on the turn looks like it couldve really hit villain's range after he called the flop and I might've checked back the FD. Hands like QJ-Q10 made 2(nd) pair, K10 and 109 made straights and any ace wont be folding TP. J10 still has a 3rd pair with a gutterball.

As played on the river, I would def value bet our flush and will never fold if villain shows us a better backdoor flush. Villain would def confidently (bluff) c/r a straight. I would (contemplate) just putting in the rest of our stack to win from a straight.

So did he turn over like the 89ss or a suited ace for the nut flush?

I don't hate the flop sizing at all. Villain should have a wide calling range with these stats. If anything I don't like the open for the same reason.

Anyways, we want to c-bet scary to make it look like we have an Ace protecting. Once he calls I probably take a free river card and of course I raise a villain bet or I bet big if checked to.

Fine as played except check turn. As stated above, he nails a huge part of his range on the turn so you don't want to get check/raised when you can possibly stack him if you hit the flush on the river. Value bet river hard and get it in. He is never putting you on a flush and probably has the 10 by the look of things.

Ya I'd def check back the turn here. Would really blow to get check/raised off our draw. I think your river bet is fine and I'm never folding to his check/raise. I'd say he has just a T here a ton and if he backdoored a flush its really just unlucky here.

Thanks everyone. Great input on checking the turn. Turns out I was unlucky and villian had nut flush with As6s.
