So, two tables left, 6-handed.
$10k up top, ~$1k for 9th, ~$800 payout for 10-12th.

I recently join new table, ~30 hands.
Played pretty snug, doubled up JJ>AQ, reshove 20BBs once vs villian's EP raise and that's it.

BTN cold calls 33%, straight forward post
SB is flatty 31/2 rec from Emirates, x/f flops much from what i observed previously being at another table
BB is solid, prolly on aggro side, no reads post.

It feels like I butchered the hand but I'm not sure on what street exactly.
It may happen on every one.

Flop I decide to cbet small since it seems I should have a range advantage otf vs these opponents and with an idea to bet two HU. Plus my solid TAG image, it's literally my 3rd hand at the table. With a heart otf bet is mandatory, without — I'm not sure, thoughts?

Turn... I feel rather bad about my check here. I have a bunch of equity with my A-high+gutter and dont want to blow it in the wind, however 2nd barrel may fold out most of his draws and buy me a free river.
Moreover, I'm a bit unsure on how to play my whole range ott and how villian precieved my check.
Thoughts?

River I tempted to press call button so much...

    Post flop positions seem messed up. You should be in position/last to act right?

    This is one of your better river bluff catchers, not sure how wide villain is value betting, calling seems decent

    Turn and river — yes.

    I mean, ott I was like "ok, it's good card to barrel, and the plan was to barrel, so I need to barrel, but wait, what I would do vs c/r, and what range I need to x-back here and what to bet, how he precieved my check range here, omg it's 888 and I'm about to time out, so I check".

    I actually think checking flop is better without bd hearts

    not sure why you bet flop then check the turn - I wouldnt bet this flop but betting the flop then checking the turn has to be the worst line.....I'd prob just fold the river - doubt he has much 5x but we're only beating missed spades with no pair and sometimes bet stuff like 4x here for no reason

    Think it's fine to ck back turn to bluff catch non spade river's, obv better when back door diamonds and a non straight card brick but still think I'm calling a lot here read less. lol @ omg it's 888
