The hands we beat on the flop that call our bet are Kx and then draws like AJ/QJ which I'm not sure is calling a turn bet now, sets would raise the flop and we block KT. Would most likely c-c here and lead turn if they check behind.

Interested to hear what others say.

2 options - x/c all the way now unless 4th club lands, or bet/bet and folding to a raise. 1st option probably is the safest yet we miss out value from AcK, KQc / AcJQ and and hands like that while paying off to flushes anyway but he might bluff QJs. I usually chose bet/bet line, not sure if that's the bast tbf.

Your x/r size is way too small though.

I think betting turn is much better. He wont have many flushes when he opens UTG and dont back raise. SO his range is more wighted towards Kx AA QJ etc. And we just want to take value from those.

Versus virtual unknown I keep it simple here and just bet about 2/3 the turn. I think I'm giving too many freebee draws if I check and Xc can still call. If I get raised too big I start crying and kick the dog again.

You have to c/r much bigger. But when you look at suit distribution, Kc and Tc on the board, he shouldn't have many Axcc in his range. Many more AK and KQ. So fire the turn and hope he is sticky. I'd make it at least 2/3 pot, since he's prob only calling with Kx with a club.
