    If you're going to open the pot, don't limp, raise. You clear out most if not all the field.

    Ask yourself what you expect these 2 to have given the preflop/flop action. When Morgan checks the flop he rarely has anything that can stand much heat, and Kid's range is heavily weighted towards mid pairs or draws, maybe a 9, depends on your read. On the turn think what your bet is accomplishing. 'What am I trying to get to fold?' 'Is he going to fold?' Betting 1/2 pot isn't getting him off anything and you may risk getting check/raised which sucks. On the river I probably just shove given you have less than a pot sized bet left.

    lol why would you limp 106 suited utg? then call a re-raise

    just save the bother of getting fancy/lucky and fold

    Think u have all misunderstood the question.

    Was my bet to small on the turn.

    not that i shouldnt be playing such a hand pre flop.

    after the flop when its checked round to me,i bet out as a feeler, when i get a flat call,i put the guy on a flush draw,
    if he has a 9,to give him a set,he has to re-raise me,as the board has a flush draw.so there fore he has to close it down,or make it more expensive for me to call.cant put him on a full house as he wouldnt have called the raise pre flop with 9-4,poss 44,even then he has to re-raise the flop,to find out if im playing a 9.

    so flush draw is the most likely hand he,s playing,when the turn comes a blank and he checks again,confirms he,s flushing,trying to see a cheap river,so if i had bet a 3\4 size pot,pot size bet,would i have go him to fold,rather than a 1\2 size bet.
    so lets try and get some constructive critisicm please.

    I think you have missed the point, we are commenting on the hand therefore none of us would be in this spot calling with such dross pre ;)

    well young gun,i stated at the beginning,thats is was a bad call pre flop.

    but the question is about bet sizzing,which i do think is an important part of the game.
