What is your bet sizing here? Or do you check?

We only have 21bb effective.


Do you bet small to induce or large to build a pot and look bluffy?


Betting 50% seems to be the wrong move, which is what I did.

It's a confusing thing, I wanted to be able to help, but I did not understand the values of the bets, and positions of each one, if possible,...

This board has probably made a couple draws possible for the villain. I bet pretty big here in this case and charge him. Your bet of 50% is not terrible but I would prefer more like 75-80%. Looks big like a bluff but has real value.

This is different if that 9h on tge flop was a 4s. Then I would be making a 50% bet.

Bet 30% pot or just a bit lower. You want a call here obv. I think you are too shallow to do 70% and you got a monster. No need to scare away the fish

yeah its dynamic board, our betsize should be big on these textures because equities change a lot on turns, bet 65% if ok.
