My villain is 44/22/4.3 but I only have 25ish hands on them so the numbers are basically meaningless.

Bet more on the turn, and instafold the river.
The river overbet is rarely a bluff at low limits, and certainly not enough to make it worth calling here.

I agree your turn bet must be closer to 12.

There are too many morons out there. I am not folding this hand. You lose to 46, and a back door flush. You beat all sets, two pair hands, and chop with other 4s.

I'm pretty sure the river's a fold. Even lagtards (and we still don't know if he is one quite yet) don't usually raise rivers like that without the nuts/near-nuts. I don't think calling is that bad though.

That turn bet size is terrible. 12 is about right.

yo, its not a overbet on the river.

if you are going to bet the turn, do it like you mean it.

a flush isn't a big part of his range, two pair/sets seem somewhat likely, and there are a lot more chops than 46s out there.

if you call the flop raise then dont donk into him on the turn, let him keep the lead, or raise the turn. If you have him beat then let him bet and raise him and take it there, if he calls re-evaluate.

I dont think flush is part of his range here. I think you win or you split the majority of the time here and he might take it away a few times, so its a call almost always, you put yourself in a bad position by donk betting and doing it small as well.

anyways..

Your bets on all streets are weak. If you're gonna lead with your semi-bluff, bet more like $3+ and add a little fold equity to your hand. Your bet says "I have 2nd/3rd pair or a draw...please don't raise me". I like c/r on turn, but if you're gonna bet make it bigger.

Bigger bets along the way make this river much easier to play btw...and call now.
