this hand tilted me a bit, just interested peoples views on the villains river bet and if i should have called? the villain was playing a ton of hands and from what i had seen liked to bluff a lot.

PokerStars - $0.05 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 3: http://www.pokertracker.com

BB: $3.85
UTG: $5.00
MP: $4.30
CO: $7.90
BTN: $11.08
Hero (SB): $5.07

Hero posts SB $0.02, BB posts BB $0.05

Pre Flop: ($0.07) Hero has Ad As

fold, MP calls $0.05, fold, fold, Hero raises to $0.30, fold, MP calls $0.25

Flop: ($0.65, 2 players) 6s Qc 9c
Hero bets $0.31, MP calls $0.31

Turn: ($1.27, 2 players) 4d
Hero bets $0.61, MP calls $0.61

River: ($2.49, 2 players) 8h
Hero bets $1.19, MP raises to $3.08 and is all-in, Hero calls $1.89

MP shows 8s 8c (Three of a Kind, Eights) (Pre 20%, Flop 17%, Turn 5%)
Hero shows Ad As (One Pair, Aces) (Pre 80%, Flop 83%, Turn 95%)
MP wins $8.29

thanks if you take the time to look!

Ty guys my standard cb is 1/2 pot! Is this too small? Am I giving this guy the right odds to call? I would fold turn if I was him I think

He's calling you down with 88 on a drawy board, of course it's too small. You lose a ton of value against a million Qx hands and draws.

The river is an easy fold.

I tiny bit smaller than 3/4 is pretty standard sizing. We miss out on so much value by betting small

Well yeah he should have folded turn but people don't like to fold

Needs to be more on drawy boards in general. 2 clubs OTF is good enough reason to bet larger.

As others have said, bet larger and shove river - another good reason to bet larger is so that we can be the one doing the river shoving.

As played, river is a grumble and fold. Bit of a cooler when he flips over 88

why are you betting only half pot? Why is it your standard bet size? You shoulod be betting mre on wet flops, less on dry flops. Do you know what a wet and a dry flop look like?

I try and keep my bet sizing similar mainly through the thinking that if I keep my c bets the same size ie half pot I won't be giving away too much info on my hand. Reading everyone's thoughts tho it would appear this is wrong? Betting more on wet flops obviously makes them pay for the draws but am I over thinking the fact that these villains at these stakes won't be paying attention to my bet sizing and just calling?
