A high on double paired board

A high on double paired board

Yatahay Network - $0.02 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

I only have played a few hands with V but I have a note that they open shoved 125bb bvb.

BB: 101 BB
UTG: 105 BB
MP: 112 BB
CO: 353 BB
BTN: 143 BB
Hero (SB): 155 BB

Hero posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has J A

fold, fold, fold, BTN raises to 3 BB, Hero raises to 11 BB, fold, BTN calls 8 BB

Flop: (23 BB, 2 players) 2 2 9
Hero checks, BTN checks

Turn: (23 BB, 2 players) 8
Hero checks, BTN bets 11.5 BB, Hero calls 11.5 BB

River: (46 BB, 2 players) 9
Hero checks, BTN bets 46 BB, fold

After checking the flop I felt like I had to call a turn bet. River seems like a fold given the bet sizing.

I find it more profitable to bet the turn than to check/call if you don't plan to fold your hand. This way you realize fold equity and have the potential to bluff on the river.

What sizing would you use?

What sizing would you use?

It depends on the opponent's tendencies. One Bet 3/4 OOT or Bet 1/3 OTT and 2/3-3/4 OTR.
