So this is my first HH, hopefully the first of many.

Villain is playing 19/15/8 with 58% c-bet over about 350 hands. I have been playing 23/18/6 this session and haven't been caught getting out of line. 

My thoughts on the hand are that I should have raised a bit bigger on the flop maybe around $4-$4.50 but I'm mostly stuck on the river sizing. I obviously hit a great card on the turn but the board looked a lot scarier on the river. Looking at it now I guess villain shouldn't have too many flushes but I was a bit worried he was slowplaying a full house. I feel like my bet sizing gives away the strength of my hand a bit and possibly leaves me open to getting bluffed off it. Any thoughts much appreciated.
