Make your preflop 3-bet larger. There's no particular reason to think a 45/9 is going to fold very much anyway so go ahead and take more of his money.

Raise more on the flop. Some players take a stab at broadway flops because they hope you will fold (I have no idea what range they put other people on, but it's common). However, it's really uncommon for them to take ANOTHER stab on the turn with nothing and it's extremely rare for them to call a medium-sized raise with their trash, but fold to a larger-sized trash. Raise to $25 or something. This is not the kind of guy who will fold Q9, QT, QJ, KJ, AJ etc. etc. to a larger raise.

On the turn, your hand is a bluffcatcher. Fortunately for you, he's probably bluffing. However, he may also be "betting for information" or something similarly dumb and your hand is certainly strong enough to call a bet. I don't think raising accomplishes much, though, and you should never ever fold. You're getting good enough immediate odds to call to hope to spike a full house, and that's not accounting for the fact that he'll stack off when you do and he has a straight.

On the river, my line would depend entirely on how much he bets. If he checks to me, I probably make a value bet with the intention of folding to a check/raise. If he bets another $10, I make a small raise with the intention to folding to a shove. When someone makes two small bets like that on a scary board like this, it's usually some kind of weak ace or two pairs that are playing erratically, and only rarely the nuts.

If he shoves the river, I probably fold.

Raise more pre particularly bc of villains stats, but regardless pot size raise this esp BvB when people overvalue hands like hell.

Once he donks into you on this board pop him again, you could make it a little more but tripling it is ok.

On the turn, call. His range isn't limited to only Kx and even if it is you have 5:1 on a call which is more than you need to come out ahead even if you ignore all implied odds

Good to see i wasn't throwing money away calling the turn bet. I wasn't sure if this was a big leak. but your spot on with raising more pfr and i think my c/r needs to become abit more agg. I think that would have saved me from being drawn out on, on a few other hands.

Lucky for my i rivered a Q and he bet the river with K 7 and i shoved , he called.......thankyou very much

Same as FP said really.
Raise more preflop and on the flop.

The turn I call. I disagree with FP that this is a bluff catcher, this guy will likely call any two pair or set off for his stack but meh I'd prefer to hit my fullhouse or see him check the river before gettin it in.
