Re: Too passive or played perfectly
After looking at comments from Dire and Buzz I actually think betting the turn makes more sense than betting the river. Though I still don't hate a river bet.
I think if you analyzed it in depth you would find that the flop situation is a mixed-strategy case. If you always call when raised in this spot you will lose to people that only raise with a FH or a Q plus backdoor draws. If you always fold you will lose to an aggressive opponent who bets with marginal hands.

Question for you - how big would the pot have to be on the flop for you to call here? 12SB? 16SB? 24SB? I'm asking because I think you're sticking to your heuristics too blindly. Not that a 24SB pot (that you can contend for HU for one more SB) is realistic, but surely you agree that in principle there is some pot size where a call is +EV. For you, what is that number?
