I think this hand is well played altogether. Bet sizing is fine IMO.

Would you bet that big on the turn? I was thinking after a bit of thought that $60 was better as it still allows a fold to a shove but allows a river shove from OP if he just gets called again?

I would call. You're getting a nice price on the call, and you'll see QX or a draw often enough here. You're probably behind most of the time, but you don't need to win most of the time to make this call.

Jam's advice here is easily the best I've read for a while and I learned this lesson yesterday a few times. I had a perfect read on my LAGtard opponent on a J 8 6 3r board - based on his timing tells and his loose play, I put him on 9 7. I had AQs. The problem is that I screwed up my bet sizes so badly that when a 9 hit and I pushed my remaining stack, he was getting 6:1 to call. He almos timed out and then called.

The point is that your bet sizes are going to determine, in large part, what you are going to do / opponent is going to do on later streets. Here, you're bet commits your opponent to a move which, in turn, commits you to a move. So, there is only one option here, there really aren't any alternatives after your flop and turn bets (both are fine).
