Live ~ River sizings?

2/2 ~ 4 handed ~ high rake

Game just got shorthanded.

V1 ~ passive for most part, have seen him randomly 3bship preflop when he was shortstacked, but normally passive. He came back from shortstack to over 1k.
Folds top2 in mwp on flop with no redraws 1 bet 2 callers oop.
Calls with nutted draws or middle/bottom set on flop/turns.
Seen him x/r w/non nutted combo draws and top set.

V2 ~ Haven't seen much action from v2, seen him x/r middle set vs tag+lag/maniac.

Effective 600

V2 rock straddles for 5 in bb
Hero in btn limps for 5 w/J875 ~ normally snap fold but this is 4 handed.
V1 limps in sb
V2 checks

3way pot 15
Flop J68
V1 checks
V2 bets 15
Hero raises to 60, this is ok? or we supposed to call?
V1 says he wants to join the fun and coldcalls. I think he has nfd or wrap or middle set type hand, I think he folds bottom set at high frequency, 3betting top set.
V2 calls fairly quickly.

Pot 195
Turn 6
all check

River J
checks to hero
Size?

Bet turn 60-75. As played river 150, it’s nice the flush came in.


Flop:
Raise seems fine.

River:
What are you targetting with a bet on the river? We have showdown value and a bet here is turning our hand into a bluff. Are you trying to get bigger flush draws to fold?
I could be missing value but I check it back.


We have the nut boat lol ^^^

POT

Pot isn’t big enough to bet smaller and we have some value to get from flushes and some 6s


Interested to hear what you guys think about the turn.

We only getting called by better but folding draws?
J6/86/66/88 all calling
all the draws are folding?

But draws also have some good equity vs us. By betting we take down the pot vs random draws.

Naked 6x might or might not fold since they usually come with fd or wraps.

If we get called we need some help drawing to the straight flush and boat.

Agree with this, especially with the dbl paired board making a FH less likely. Nut flush should call a pot size bet most of the time.

I b33 on these turns with nuts and draws and b100 with nutted bare trips and vulnerable boats and some bluffs like double pair blockers

This hand would fall into a b100

Haha woops, I misread the hand and didn't see Hero holds Jd. Silly me thought it was 5d.

With the right cards this time.

Flop:
Raising IP is fine. OOP I check/call.

Turn:
Check or we can try and turn hand into a bluff and bet 1/3 pot to set up a river bomb on non s, c or straight cards but I don't like this line if it goes multiway.

River:
As played. Bet 1/2 pot.
