Villain runs at 29/13/1.65. Is trying to get two streets of value here bad? Do hands like KJ,JJ-77,67 still call as often as hands like Ax will? Is my bet sizing too small? I felt half pot bets would get the loosest calls. I'm playing taggy and I'd still be raising a decent amount of hands out of the SB preflop.

If I checked the turn I thought there would be a good chance I'd get bluffed off my hand, hence the bet. Once I got to the river I still figure I'm ahead so I bomb again. I'm unsure about my bet sizing though.

i doubt anyone will bluff you on the turn in a multiway pot on that board. As for what do, I don't know. I guess try to get to showdown. I don't think you can expect someone without an Ace to call you.

i usually check river as played, since i see something like A3 or A7 more often then id like, and i dont know if theyre folding to a river bet
