    Default 200NL HU: overbet, vbet, c/c?

    Villain opens 70%+ from SB and is on the fishy/passive side. I have donked 2 times before on similar board structures and he has folded. What is my best line on river?

    vbet certain normal size? overbet shove the 106 remaining on river into 65 pot, c/c?

    Please try to justify your responses with ranges and frequencies.

    Think betting about $42 is good. We can defo get looked up here by a bunch of 7x which is a big part of his range for calling flop and turn. Doubt he has too much Ax after he calls turn or many hands strong enough to call an overbet. I'd expect him to raise draws on this flop a bunch so there aren't enough of them in his range to c/c and too much 6x imo.

    I forgot to mention that I was establishing a donk leading dynamic due to his low cbet frequency and overall passivity. Also, when choosing between normal bet size and overbet jam, please discuss if we are bet calling a shove with the normal size.

    I think c/c is best, overbetting is terrible.

    i bet, we're betting the river with a reasonable amount of missed draws and he has a decent amount of bluff catchers

    I like c/c as well as if you just lead he's folding out all his busted draws,and raising hands that beat your range. You only get value from pps 7x type hands which he might bet anyway when u check a ace on the river.
