I think big is good with SB in the hand especially


I’m betting big here.

I feel like the highest EV play here is to bet big ( maybe big bet has higher EV than a smaller bet size but I don’t know for sure).


Nothing wrong here. If someone has a flush they will call. Nobody probably had anything good.


Good sizing.


Bet a bit bigger in this line.


I would also bet big. If someone had a set OTF wil now check and jamm OTT. Maybe flushdraw with A will still call. KX Has a hard time here.

I Like the play.
