I'll post the hand first and then include history afterwards if you want to do some extra reading. We have a winning image at the table but was playing quite tight on 10bb stack situation to start. So was 14/10 or something after 30 hands at one point. Now have been able to open it up and am probably running 22/18/8 ish. 

 

Chad's been playing 20/9 over 70 hands and I've won every pot I've played against him. He plays very transparently postflop imo. I think from the hands below this one you'll see he doesn't play very well, has not made life tough on me at all. 

 

The player on the button is a SNE who is playing 41/30/16 over 100 hands. He's a bit of a nightmare and I've just stayed out of his way. Its pretty obvious that I am making an effort not to play pots with him but to play ones with Chad, for example. I know what his 4betting range here is, he 5b shoved ATs earlier v another guy in HJ v CO, so I think he never hesitates with QQ+AK here. After that, less clear. Either way I have a turn choice and a river choice.

Turn check back is ok. I like barreling to get three streets from a Q, but checking back isn't bad for deception. As played, easy call on the river because he will be value betting KQ+ after you check back turn.
