How much should i bet in these spots.
I wasn't sure if i should made a small sized bet or bet for his remaining 32 dollars.
I think the turn was a pretty good card for me , it 's very unlikely that he hit trips .
Maybe he just had a flush draw , but what do you think ?
Push or a small bet? i wouldn't consider checking behind, because it's possible that he has a flush draw.

pretty laggy passive player. 2/3 bet for value seems to be pretty standard.

I was thinking- is the 3-bet PF in position better than just calling?

flop raise is too big, raise $9 or $10

This is fine, it's very possible he has a draw or a worse King. I think a ten folds flop to your raise.

Yes. You probably have the best hand, you get more information, you most likely get it heads up (what you want with AK) and you take control of the pot in position.

I like the bigger raise on this board.

He did -- he raised $10 to $13. That's $10 to call into a pot of $14ish, and that's a fair bet when the board has a draw.

As to the turn, villain has $32 left. I'd assume he's got a weak K and I'd make a bet that (1) he can call and (2) leaves him just enough for a crying call on the river. Make it $18 or so and he's only got to call $14 on the river (into a pot of $60ish -- $74ish after your bet). Obviously you have to pay off a check-raise, but if he's got a T he's stacking you no matter what based on relative stack sizes.

He's short, so offer him tasty odds, and then slam the door on his head when he calls.

P.S.: remember, after making the $18 bet you do not have a "fold" button. You're calling any push on the turn or river, and you're auto-pushing any non-club river. On a club river, I'd check behind if checked to, and I'd call if villain pushes.

There's nothing scary about the board.
