What a run out, tanked for a bit but any Q or J and i am crushed - and I highly doubt this is a bluff.

i think i would x back otf, we cant get 3 streets of value with worse holdings that call us, if i decided to bet otf i would bet smaller

ott what do we beat if we bet, KJ?

Flop c-c isn't too bad, would hate to cbet this flop and get raised as I'd prob be folding.

Turn bet looks thin, would check and the river is an easy fold when the fd comes and board pairs.

Preflop I would raise bigger. 3x min plus out of position I would make it at least $1.10.

On the flop we have so many hands that can bet for value (AA, KK, QQ, AQ, KQ, QJ, maybe JJ and 44) but only a few decent bluffs and check call hands. So I don't mind putting aces in the check call range here, especially when we not only block hands like AQ and AJ which can call a cbet, but we also block the nut flush draw.

I don't think it's too tough a spot if we are raised on this flop since we have the back door drawers and we only have a few better hands to call with. But it will make turn and river very difficult if we don't improve. That's why I prefer check call on the flop.

As played I think we have to check the turn. We are suddenly behind most of villains flop calling range and we are folding to a raise.

It is a strange (and probably bad) jam by villain on the river, since a flush, jack or even KQ could be beat, which might make me hesitate for a second before folding.

Bad run out and we just have to fold. There is not enough bluff hands compared to value hands to make this a call.

Well, this flop smashes villain's calling range and the runout makes it even worse so I'd be happy to fold on this river and I'd consider check/calling on the flop like others suggested.
