This was the first orbit of the session i played so again no reads and this was the first hand i played.

BTN was sitting out for that orbit and only came back the hand before.

Should I be bombing the turn here or is a check ok?

After he checked the turn i figured his draw missed on the river. Is the line ok?

Sorry if people think this seem standard but im pretty new to cash games.

I'd bet the turn again, he could easily be on a diamond draw. If he had flopped a small flush, he would raise to protect against the redraw, so he is likely holding A or Q.

The river bet is OK, I don't mind it. I'd probably bet the turn and c/c the river (long as no diamond).

I think you need to bet the turn strongly (say $10) as it's very draw-heavy board. As played, I'd lean towards c/c (or maybe c/f) on the river. The Q is a pretty bad card, and puts a lot of his range in front. Gonna be more value IMO in checking to induce a bluff from a busted flush draw.

flop - good
turn - bet 2/3
river - good)

I like double-barrel, C/C line better, but that's just me. Triple-barrel seems spewy here.

Barrel the turn for sure, though.

Bet the turn, letting him have a free card here is BAD. As played on the river its a nice value bet. If you bet the turn I would be c/c the river I think.
