Bet flop

Betting the flop would be ok, but would be pretty bad if we were raised.

I like checking the flop.

On the turn, don't think there's much point in raising. There is one player still to act. We aren't really going to get action from worse.

OTR my bet sizing is really bad. Really dislikethe river sizing, it's pretty terrible.

Sorry Henrik
I was being gormless and thought you'd flopped the straight

Bet flop - unlikely to be raised and if we are it's an easy fold and we haven't really lost any equity by having to b/f.

What sizing would you use OTR if you don't like the sizing you used?

+1 to betting flop.

I'm not raising turn.

River I'd probably go a bit bigger but meh

OTF do you really want to re-open the betting to the two other creative players and risk being bluffed off it?

OTT so much else has got there you´re unlikely to be called by worse, you have to be wanting to GII to make that move imho

OTR it´s all meta-game, actually think the non-committal size bet is ok. plenty of hands might look you up not sure if your bet is for thin value or a scared bluff.

OTF is really interesting and close.

We're not expecting 2 folds a whole lot here on this board.

Turn is pretty standard.

River sizing is far from optimal for many reasons.

I was talking to my Dad recently about RFs - he had read an article of a "pro" that had never had one.

Posted this up so I could show him, I forgot to post my RF from 3 weeks ago:)

Then when I posted it, was really interested in the action on all 3 streets.

Why ain't we? Board smacks our range, we have the Ad, it's pretty hard for the blinds to have hit much of this board. With the BB in the hand as well, it kinda forces the small blind to play a tad more honestly vs us. And if we do get resistance, we have loads of great turn cards to barrel, along with the diamond and gutshot insurance.

Probably bet more on river. It's just seems so unlikely that Matt has a hand that can call any bet, so on the off chance he does have something he can pay you off with, might as well go big. If he's not calling 440 then he isn't calling 700, if he's calling 440 then he might well call a couple hundred more.....
