Random Hand 3

I'd say the worst thing I know how to play is a flush draw. The turn I wasn't sure if it was the correct play either. Thoughts?

Villain is 28/5/2.4

you played it fine, its a limped pot. You could snap shove river and hope this is his first time playing poker.

bet turn

Yeah, I figured the turn should have been a bet, but how much do you bet there? Would 3/4 or full pot be the ticket?

3/4 should be fine no less than that though, you're trying to gauge his interest in staying in the hand.

Bet turn.
Shove river.

You get the same value if he calls the shove 1 out of 30 times that you do if your value raise gets called 30/30 times.... which is like... do I need to go on?
