I think flop and turn barrels are fine. I'm not sure about river tho, seems like a bad card to barrel and that you should have good reads on villain to do it. I believe you should bet a lot smaller on flop and turn (~25%), because this is an ISO pot and the board is weak for villain's range.

I didn't really want to look like just A high by the turn so I thought betting at least 50% was good, and too big reps 5x/6x whereas villain has loads more of those in his range than us after limp calling pre.

Then the FH drops on the river and I think villain is happy to call any bet within the size of the pot. However, when we shove, we can have all of our 77+, villain's fives are counterfeit and he's risking his whole stack on the first hand playing the board when our range is uncapped... Don't think any other sizing works as effectively.
