Flop
6♥ K♠ A♠

We should use our top pair and nut-blockers to call down when the board texture remains relatively safe and the pot odds are excellent.

Flop Analysis

We have a massive range advantage on this Ace-high board. While checking is a viable mix to protect our range, betting large or overbetting leverages our nut advantage against the BB's capped range.

Turn Analysis

The Jack is a dynamic card that gives us an open-ended straight draw while still holding top pair. We should continue betting for value and protection.

River Analysis

Facing a river lead (donk bet) for the remainder of the stacks, we must call. Our hand is too high in our range to fold given the excellent price.
