I don't think we can x/r river, exactly because we puke when they 3bet us. I imagine bet big and decide depending how much they raise (if they raise) is better, and we reserve x/r for some bluffs and straight. But not too sure...

It seems you beat only a bluff, or a very overplayed 55 maybe? What are the bluffs here? 56, 54... ? Not too sure they find them.

I think we lose too much value vs weirdly played overpairs and 55, A9 on river if we just call, I agree that generally they won't find bluffs though
From mda fish overbluff bxb and overfold to river bet which is why x/r is a better line imo
