I think our flop bet is too large.

So against a passive calling station where I'm probably planning on going for 3 postflop streets, I exercise pot control by just betting way smaller, especially on dry boards. So I wouldn't go any more than $15.
I'm ok with our turn sizing (I wouldn't be betting any larger).
Next time don't post results as it will bias responses.
Against a passive calling station, I'd go extremely small on the river attempting to target weaker Jx-. Probably wouldn't go any more than $50 here (<< 1/3 PSB) and even a "same bet" is fine.

Thanks for your answer, I chose a larger sizing on the flop in order to fold out high cards and keep pairs calling me, since I'm ahead of most pairs on the board. On the turn brick, I bet half pot for value. I like your 15 dollar bet on the flop to pot control so we can go for 3 streets of value without a bloated pot.
