Slightly bigger flop/turn is std but small sizings are not too terrible. We can also check turn, seems pretty close. As played fold especially with the Jd blocker, takes away a lot of bluffs.

Yeah thats why i didint go for a slightly bigger bet on the flop; with the Jd there werent strong draws that he could potentially x/r or call with. I felt it was close between x or b OTT but now that i think of it.. there are enough Ax JT T9 even J8 and fds combos to extract value from, arent there?

83bb effective you generally don't want to try for 3 streets of value with a hand like this, so I like checking the turn. His range can be quite wide on the flop so I'm not too concerned about giving a free card (draws represent only a portion of his range).

With this particular hand, I would bet bigger on Flop (around 5k) and check Turn. He has so many check-raises on this turn (either semi-bluff or value) and you don't want to bet-call with this hand and stack-size.

The sizing is due to the stack size and the coordinated board, you want him to pay for his draws and Tx which he calls always.

As played it's interesting as you block J9 for value, though given the action I hardly think it's a bluff and i'd opt to fold on this line.
