Bet more like 3/4 on all streets and you can probably just check the river then. Also, in this spot I would probably call this, you have a bigger hand than it looks.

Do you guys think my flop raise was too small? Raise to 3.75 there?

On turn, do you always bet this and fold/call 50/50 to check raise? I'm thinking a bet between $4.75 - $6.00, though doesn't a strong bet here scare off a lot of weak aces, what about checking turn, calling river bet?

River --&gt; strong bets like these seem like they have the goods and don't want a checked river... rarely a bluff in my experience, what do you guys think?
