Crying call on the river from me.

I would bet more on the flop though, 210-240, since it's so drawy. If they raise me to 600+, I'd just shove. They'll call with worse a lot.

As played, shoving is too much on the flop, so I don't mind the line you took. Obviously not very happy with 2/3 pot bet on the river, but our hand seems too underrepped not to call.

I'm not a fan of overbetting pots. You fold out a lot of the worse hands you want to call. If you shove on the flop, you're making them call 2470 more for a 1185+2470 pot. So you're giving them less than 1.5:1. So they'll fold weaker drawing hands that we're ahead of a lot of the time. If you want to take the the pot right there it's fine, but I prefer to try and get more value even if it's at a higher variance. That's why I like betting more on the flop to make shoving more natural.
