Default 2/4 weird river action

villain has been playing 22/18 or so this session (and is a winning player) and i'm running a bit less than that

Poker Stars - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $2/$4 Blinds - 4 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter)

Hero (SB): $712.45
BB: $147.40
UTG: $576.75
BTN: $531.20

Preflop: Hero is dealt A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (4 Players)
UTG folds, <font color="red">BTN raises to $12.00</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $36.00</font>, BB folds, BTN calls $24.00

Flop: ($76) 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
Hero checks, BTN checks

Turn: ($76) Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $36.00</font>, BTN calls $36.00

I think you have to call after that river betsize. I would make it like $96 and fold to a raise.

I don't really understand your betsizing.

This looks totally like a straight or a flush that chased getting 3:1 on turn.

Is villain good enough to turn a 1 pair hand into a bluff?

You are probably looking a 9cTc here or similar. ITs a fold to me.

Does anyone else think turn bet size should be a bit bigger, like say $55?

Turn bet is pretty sick. $55 looks good.
River is even worse. Check or bet properly. Jesus.

Bet sizing on all streets is awful IMO. I don't mind the flop check, but the turn/river bets need to be bigger. As played I'd call just because of how small your river bet is and he could even be raising worse for value. If you bet closer to $100 I think you can safely fold to a raise.

Yeah. In cash games if you never bet less than half pot and rarely bet less than 2/3 you'll almost never be making a mistake.

I bet more on turn and river myself. Probably 60-65 on turn.
