personally I prefer a smaller bet size here if your going to bet. 1/4 to 1/3 ish, that way worse hands can still call and you rarely get bluff raised. I think a check call is also ok vs a lot of players that will bet with Ax, 2 pair or a busted draw.

Against 4 people and this board texture we can bet the flop larger for value.

Turn bet is fine since villain will have either draws or Ax (sometimes 67 that got there).

On the river I also like our bet because villain may still call with Ax and draws fold anyway. So without any special reads (ie: what he value bets or bluffs) just bet the river about 1/2 pot.
