I refrained from making a River value bet to "protect" against a flush or straight. I think this was a mistake. What might be a good size River bet here? Any other critique is welcome.

Biggest critique is don't post villain's hand.

  • Raise turn. Villain's range is mostly AA, Kx, which they are never folding to a 2/3 size raise or less. This makes river jam easy on safe run outs
  • You need to raise river for thinner value than this. You have what...50BB behind? Just jam, again targeting AA, 2 pairs, Kx. Villain is rarely betting turn and checking river with straight or flush here
