Ok, so im getting about 4-1 here and I put him on a probable flush draw after that min flop bet. My hand has little chance of improving and if it does improve it doesnt beat the flush.

Hes got about 1.80 left after the .40 bet on the turn. While i think its possible hes got a weaker straight, i think thats just too horrible of a card to continue. Is this nitty or a good Plan of action?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.05 BB (9 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

MP3 ($3.89)
Hero ($6.38)
Button ($5.56)
SB ($1.65)
BB ($10.15)
UTG ($2.38)
UTG+1 ($5.46)
MP1 ($6.45)
MP2 ($6.24)

Preflop: Hero is CO with Q, T.
UTG calls $0.05, 4 folds, Hero raises to $0.2, 3 folds, UTG calls $0.15.

Flop: ($0.47) 9, J, T (2 players)
UTG bets $0.05, Hero raises to $0.35, UTG calls $0.30.

Turn: ($1.17) 8 (2 players)
UTG bets $0.4, Hero ?

Final Pot: $1.17

tough spot. theres prolly no value in raising and not much to defend against, if he has the A he doesnt fold anyway. Call turn and call reasonable bets on a non spade river

I agree w XTR1000 here. That said on boards this draw heavy you need to increase your flop bet sizing. You raised him $.30 in a $.52 pot. Betting 60% pot is no good on a board like this. I would full pot the flop, (raise to $.57).

A full pot size raise would be to $.62 as you have to call his bet, then raise the pot.

u need twice as much folding equity to make pot sized cbets profitable compared to 1/2 pot. Choose your boards wisely to cbet that big
