Final Board: 5♠ T♦ A♣ 3♦ 6♦
Hero mucked J♥ Q♥ and won $0.98 ($0.48 net)
UTG mucked and lost (-$0.50 net)

UTG is unknown.

Preflop, i think i get a good price.
Flop, again the price is good and by his sizes it seems he isn't strong.
Turn, when he bets the same value i think i can take the pot right away by check/raising.
River, decided to make pressure again by betting. Now it seems to me that the play doesn't make many sense. Especially on the river. And turn is better to check/call?

Hey Sarvam,

Preflop call is fine vs min-raise.

Flop call is fine.

Turn x/r is fine.

River bluff is fine.

Can you explain what is your reason for disliking the play?

Turn, make some sense because of the size he used. But once he called, he can have a Ax.
River, i really don't know if can rep a A or make a Tx fold.

Ok, makes sense.

Not sure if we even need to get an Ax to fold that often. If we can fold out KQ/KJ/Tx that's probably ok, and even better if we can fold out a few of the weaker Ax combos.

It's not mandatory to bluff here though, fine to give up.
