5/5
7 handed
I (1200) open to 20 utg+1 with As2sKcJs7c

Only the sb calls. He's the biggest winner in the game.

Pot 45

Flop: QhTd7h
He checks, I bet 30, he repots to 135, I call.

Turn: 5c
He pots to 315, I call

River Ac
He checks, I jam for 730, he folds

1) should I check back the flop to avoid getting check raise, underrep my hand and induce bluff on later streets?
Having no heart in my hand, I don't really like my bet.

2) river, I have no low, that's why I choose to go all-in to make him fold a bad low.
Should I bet a small sizing to get called by QQAJ type of hand?
I think that's too greedy and I prefer the jam.

1) betting the flop is a clear mistake for me. You have a middling hand and getting raised is pretty bad for you.

2) I prefer just getting it in, though there isn't a big difference.

great type of hand to check back. getting raised is awful and you have a ton of cards on the turn you would love to see for free.

If the flop was rainbow, would it be fine to bet?

I'd still prefer to check. Hand doesn't need protection and you can continue on any turn when flop is checked. Against flop c/r you are forced to continue and sometimes heavily dominated.
