50nl, I has a set! sigh i suck?
 

I'd like comments on both the flop and turn please

BB is 43 / 25 / 1.4 (58 hands)
No reads on the CO

I RARELY check behind this flop, but vs a spastic and a seemingly average player i figured it couldn't hurt on a VERY dry flop.

I don't see the problem? Bet? Bet big? Bet really big?

Oh I missed that the flop was checked, thought that the only way the flush would have come is if someone called on a runner draw.

Hmmmm that makes it more difficult. I think I still bet though.

Define a reasonable bet, i wanted to block bet around 16 with the intention to call a shove by either

okay, obv not a blocking bet...but i figure if we're calling a decent sized bet we may aswell try get value from 2 pairs and such

bet the flop all day long!!
as played valuebet the river big time.
checking behind b/c a bdfd hit is really bad b/c it´s only a tiny fraction of his range...

I'd bet $24 here. I hate the flop check by the way.

Re: 50nl, I has a set! sigh i suck?
 

Don't check flop, they're gonna call. As played, turn is fine. CO can have KQ, KTs or KJ. BB can have any of those as well as 77 or maybe like QT or diamonds. Once BB checks, I don't think CO has a draw because of his cold-call. I don't mind a shove at all.

There's only $30 effective left. If they call $24 they're probably calling $30 right?

I don't see why the flop chekc is that bad, no turn cards really hurt us:
