I check the flop to pot control, also to hide the strength of my hand, as I did not think there were that many bad turn cards, considering it was a limped pot. I mean, ace would be bad, but how likely is it for them to have an ace and just limp. Also any broadway wouldn't be great either, as some potential 2 pair combos, like QJ, JT etc would get there.

On the turn I bet small to get calls from Jx and also maybe some underpairs, that don't believe the line I took.

On the river, the only hand I think I'm losing to is QJ and I feel, that there are enough weak one pair types of hands I could get value from, as the opponent was a really sticky type. I would definitely fold to a shove though, as there are probably not many bluffs in his range (I'd think he'd shove a flush draw on the turn considering how weakly I had played my hand).

Well, let's just say the result is somewhat surprising. I don't want to sound like a clickbaiter, but I don't want to spoil the action for you. This is definitely not the hand I thought he'd show up with.

Playing it the same way only going a bit larger on the turn (2.2-2.4k). River sizing could go a bit smaller (2.9-3k).
