$30.

I personally sometimes use “mix” and “it depends” interchangeably. I do a mix of raise and limp behind (usually raise) here because it depends on the villains. If they are the type to limp pretty tight and mix in a lot of AQ/KQ etc into their limp range I’m not raising. If they limp call T6s then I’m always raising. Mix can also be a reasonable answer because it can depend on game flow and how a particular villain has been playing or perceiving me at this given moment.

As played I would bet around $45-50 on the flop unless they have a lot of aggressive tendencies in which case check back can be good.

Thank you everyone for the responses so far.

Flop: $70. Kc-Jh-5h. Checks to me. I bet $45. MAG calls, MAWW folds.

Turn: $160. Kc-Jh-5h-10h. What a turn. MAG checks. Hero?

$75 and fold to a shove from the nit.

We don't need to balance vs super nit. We can bet 50 and shut down or bet tiny on blank rivers. Nit will make things easy for us

You don’t have to bet flop, x back is viable. If betting small looks good.

I think this is an easy spot. Bet something like $60-$70 and fold to a raise. You need to bet in case V has a heart or a Q for an OESD. Since V is tight, he makes life easy for you, a raise will generally be a flush or a set.

Being in position matters a lot, since you can check back or make sure one more bet goes in on the river.

Bet/fold $75 - $80. He's almost never raising with worse than KT here, but he might call with worse. I also want him to pay a little to call with a draw.

Thank you everyone. I really screwed the turn up.

Turn ($160): Kc-Jh-5h-10h. Hero bets $135. Villain shoves for $150~ more. I think he has some KQ here, and I’m live vs a flush. After betting so much what do I do?

Not being a dick but what range do you put him on, how much equity does that give you and how much do you need?

we can have straights, flushes, sets, and plenty of pairs drawing much more live. our worst two pair here is a pretty easy laydown. I think we butchered the hand at every point postflop.

This bet is a big mistake against THIS player. Remember, V is nit. He is going to give you perfect information. He's calling your bet if he has a marginal made hand or a draw, and he's raising/shoving with a made flush. A nit is NEVER shoving this card without actually having the flush. So why bet $135 which in return gives you 4-1 odds to call when V shoves? Betting $70 like most suggested, gives you 2.5 to 1 pot odds when V shoves. Much easier to fold to that shove. You essentially paid too much for that information.

You already threw away 20 big blinds by betting too much on the turn. Don't compound that error by throwing away another 50 big blinds by calling the shove. You have only about 7-10% equity in pot, depending if V holds the Kh. Calling is a very negative EV play. FOLD and cut your losses.
