What's the proper raise sizing here? I just kinda winged it.
Also, first time posting a hand, is there a standard format? Or some way to export from Ignition to post?
Edit: whoops I realized I posted this in cash, not tourney, is there a way to move a thread?

A mod can probably move this. Looks okay to me. Maybe size the four bet a bit larger - about 3x the three bet amount, but that really is just a quibble. The larger 4! leaves you with roughly a pot-sized shove OTF if you get a favorable flop, assuming villain calls. The sizing you used results in a bit of an overbet shove OTF when villain calls. A slightly larger 4! (30bb or so) would even give you about a three quarter pot shove when called, so I certainly wouldn’t argue with a larger than standard sizing in this spot.
Of course for this hand that’s a moot point since villain was an obvious fish and wasn’t flatting the four bet.
