Villian 57/0/1 but only over 7 hands so no real hands

My questions is should I against an unknown just check the river behind as a flush draw so likely or go ahead and bet for value? If we bet for value was my bet sizing good?

Line and idea is perfectly fine. I'd probably bet slightly less on river is all.

Villain will have a flush here fairly often for sure, but you will get looked up sometimes by a naked pair, all 2 pairs and sets and lower straights, etc. And c/c is absolutely terrible so bet/fold is about the only line you can take.

I like your line too. Bet/fold >>> check/call on the river for sure. Same result vs. flushes and gets you more vs. a bunch of weaker hands. Also, flushes are really not that common so you shouldn't be too scared of them.

And if MP1 has the flush, he needs to buy himself of pair of cojones because not raising river here with the flush is criminal.
