    Default value betting?

    Im sure i could have played this hand better but villain is a station, trying to get as much value here as possible? or am I setting myself up to get stacked by bigger hands?

    villain is 35/11/36 agf and my read is very tight passive

    Agree with newfish, the flop and turn especially, the flop should be pot size. Then if he calls you have 34k left with a 24k pot, and I would think we are ahead, but being oop against a station I think its hard to tell if you dont have any more reads... So, pot it again, and stack the river if he calls?

    I don't really get the bet sizing either.
    Perhaps larger bets would have caused him to fold? It doesn't look like he has anything better than a pair and if he thought that Hero hit a flush he would fold.

    I think after the flop his bet was right, but after the turn and the river he should have bet more. but u won the hand so i say GOOD JOB!!!!!

    First of all.... your read is very tight passive yet he is a station? wat?

    I'd like more like 70% bet on all streets as the board rolled out. I mean you lost to sets, and flopped flushes but that is it. So yes, valuebet all streets.

    I think you played well. Bigger bet on flop though.
