Hero ? on turn and river.
MP says they had a gutshot to a royal draw (QT/JT spade)
I put CO to have two pair given his check call line
* Was there more value to get on the turn or did I get max value? I was contemplating on the turn sizing on either half-pot or jamming (which would be an overbet). I was thinking about SPR and if the overbet would lose out on value but charge the maximum on drawing hands if called (as my main intention is to get all the money in by the river anyways). I went for half-pot to extract value from strong Ax, 2pair combos, and drawing hands.
My thought process on the turn was slightly inaccurate in the moment, as I thought MP could be slowplaying AA or KK (since I closed off action and they couldn't 3bet pre), but they would have 3bet the flop with those hands already.

Bottom set definielty wants to fast play so good raise on the flop, however go much larger. You unblock the entire continue range and your hand benefits from getting the money in on the flop.
Turn: Again think you sized to small. Id bet pot or bigger. I wouldn't be worried about a slow play from AA/KK if they have AA/KK you are loosing your stack.
I'm fairly new to 1/3 so I wasn't sure about the appropriate sizing, would a big XR blast them off the flop and lose value on future streets (unless we just consider this set 1 street of value)? Would I need to XR on the flop to 75 or 100?
I'll definitely think about the turn sizing as well, seems like most people would continue after betting pot or overbetting in these types of situations.
I agree with Basil, you can't make it too cheap to draw. Obviously it worked out but not the point.
You played well. The board hits their range well, so building a pot is a good idea. Chances are with your re raise on the flop, you get at least one call.
The turn is where you build the pot. The sizing is good as you want to keep at least one in there but also leave them some behind so the sizing isn't weird. You show massive aggression here and you get folds.
As played, one fo those dream hands that can really build to a great night.
Size bigger on flop (you want to raise at least pot-sized, which would be $85).
Then you can shove turn.
As played turn sizing is the bigger mistake, you are giving spade draws too good of a price, especially when they can stack out on disguised straight outs. Shoving turn is still an option as played.
