Did I bet OK? I have trouble balancing wanting villain to call and wanting villain to get AI in these situations.

Dont know anything about this guy...

Note villain is starting at half-stack. I tried for a 3/4ths pot on the flop, but my math sucks, then I figured half villains stack on the turn figuring he'd push over, then just put him all in on the shitty river. It all good? Check/call river and hope to induce?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

MP ($55.35)
CO ($43.55)
Button ($25.60)
SB ($26.50)
Hero ($70.05)
UTG ($49.25)

Preflop: Hero is BB with K, K.
1 fold, MP calls $0.50, 1 fold, Button calls $0.50, SB completes, Hero raises to $3.25, MP folds, Button calls $2.75, SB folds.

Flop: ($7.50) 2, 3, 2 (2 players)
Hero bets $4, Button calls $4.

Turn: ($15.50) T (2 players)
Hero bets $9, Button calls $9.

River: ($33.50) A (2 players)
Hero bets $10, Button calls $9.35 (All-In).

Final Pot: $52.85
<Staxalax> Honestly, #flopturnriver is the one thing that has improved my game the most.

 It is an awkward stack size.

I like to hammer on shorties, so I bet 1/3 of his stack on flop, $7. That leaves PSB on turn.

Yeah, I like this too. I find shorties are more willing to call flop bets than other streets. So I like to get more of their stack in here and make later bets easier for them to call.
