5NL: FH - bet size on river (deep stacks)

[nonofyobiz]

THis was a nice hand for me, haven't had too many lately.

Just wondering if I should have just shoved the river, or is he going to fold too often. We were both pretty deep and obv i wanted his whole stack in there.
I bet pretty soft on the turn just in case he was on a FD, I wanted to give him the chance to hit it. Once he raised me I was sure he had the 10, so ya, bet sizing once he raises me on the turn...???

Here's another bet sizing question from that session...
Villain is pretty solid at 14/7 over 230 hands

I know, turn raise ....ew.

Hand 1 just bet bigger everywhere. 30 cents on the flop, 75 on turn, then the hand plays itself.

even as played you can probably shove the river, whatever he called the turn with, he's not folding.

ship the river no one one folds a T

hand 1 is an absolutely awesome spot to just overbet the shit out of it. villain's range is either super strong and never folding (Tx) or not very strong at all (any two pair hand) and rarely paying us off. bomb the turn to like $3.40 and jam river.

2nd hand I'd bet $1.50 on river.

hand 1 - pre good. Flop good. First turn bet too small. River too small.
hand 2 - turn min raise is bad.

Missing out on river value is the biggest leak you can have at the micro stakes. You should set yourself up for the river shove on the turn. Raise more on the turn so you dont have to overshove the river OR miss some value for not getting your whole stack in.
