I am just after some general thoughts on a very strange short handed hand. I think I could have played it a multitude of ways, but opted to bluff catch once the 2nd K rolled off.

I should mention that I opted to flat pre because I had been ultra agressive preflop and was planning to make a move at some point post flop.

Villain is a 21/19/3 reg who I had found could keep the aggression up postflop.

BTN would bet more on turn if he has a Kx hand, unless he was uber lucky and has a FH already :)

I would have called that river bet expecting to see a busted FD/complete air quite often vs an aggressive reg.

nh imo

Why would he bet more if it looks like we're weak?

I still want to fold or 3bet pre despite our image

I meant from villain's pov, we called flop so part of our flop calling range is FDs. If he has a K then I might expect him to bet bigger on the turn.
