hi, if i review this hand, my first thought was" why i dont pot flop & turn?" ok, the reaseon in game was, i dont want to be 2 obvious.
@ river i thought bet/fold, if he got the straight than he raise, if i just check than i lose value.

what do you think about my riverthoughts?
can u give me an advice about bet sizing on different boards?
on polar boards i bet about 1/4, and about the rest i got no clear guideline.

So the standard bet in Srp On unpaired boards is 75% of the pot. I would advise you to use it any time you bet on this kind of board. On the turn you could go for full pot if you know that your opponent is calling too wide. I would check the river behind as you block diamonds and unblock all the str8s.

Grunching.

Sizing up OTF would be good, but it's not a huge mistake.

I wouldn't worry too much about the turn sizing. I suspect a bet smaller than pot is higher EV, because otherwise—even though denying equity is always good—we're folding out too much of villain's range and missing out on another bet when we're almost always doing quite well.

OTR I think we're starting to run out of combos we can extract more value from. I would just check it back, which I think I do too often, so take that advice with a grain of salt.

I don't really like planning to bet/fold the river, because I really want to show this hand down. It's... pretty good!
