Default Need Help with Bet Sizes

I had been active at the table recently and had just cbet into villain the past two hands, both of which he folded on flop. This made me think he had something much weaker than what he actuall did, so I didn't want to lose him on flop if he held tpwk, straight got there on turn and i still wanted to keep him in if he didnt have it and i was obv scared to bet river.

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.50/$1
5 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (5 players) JReezy is UTG with J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
<font color="#cc0000">JReezy raises to $3.5</font>, CO folds, Button calls, SB folds, BB calls.

Flop: 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ($11, 3 players)
BB checks, <font color="#cc0000">JReezy bets $7</font>, Button folds, <font color="#cc0000">BB raises to $14</font>, <font color="#cc0000">JReezy raises to $33</font>, BB calls.

Turn: 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] ($78, 2 players)
BB checks, <font color="#cc0000">JReezy bets $33</font>, BB calls.

River: 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ($157, 2 players)
BB checks, JReezy checks.

Results:
Final pot: $157


i know i should be betting more somewhere to get his stack in there and ive been having this problem alot lately where i dont think i get enough of opponents stack when they have a solid inferior hand to mine. reading balugas recent post where one of his three tips was to bet more reminded me of this and i think its my main leak. any suggestions?

assuming 100bb stacks make it 38-44 on flop. Set up for a nice river push!

Bet more on the flop, something like 9. Re-raise more on the flop too, to like 40. Stack sizes would be helpful for any more information.

Can't give good betsize advice without knowing stack sizes...

Raise to atleast 40 on the flop... That way you can usually get the rest in on the turn.

As played with this weak flop raise, fire atleast 45 on the turn.

Make that first bet $8-$9. If they'll call $7, they'll call a few bucks more. After he c/r's you, look and see how much he has left. If you raise him 1/3 of his stack, you can get it in on the next street easily.
