Hero (SB): $15.41 (154.1 bb)
BB: $10 (100 bb)
UTG+1: $7.71 (77.1 bb)
UTG+2: $10 (100 bb)
MP1: $27.15 (271.5 bb)
MP2: $11.03 (110.3 bb)
MP3: $11.99 (119.9 bb)
CO: $10 (100 bb)
BTN: $10.48 (104.8 bb)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 6 7
7 folds, Hero raises to $0.30, BB calls $0.20

Standard steal here.

Flop: ($0.60) Q 6 9 (2 players)
Hero bets $0.28, BB calls $0.28

I bet half pot as he can float with any ace or small pocket pair here. Also charges draws.

Turn: ($1.16) 7 (2 players)
Hero bets $0.83, BB calls $0.83

More draws appear but now we have 2 pair so I bet large to get value if he has Qx or draws.

River: ($2.82) 8 (2 players)
Hero checks, BB bets $2.15, Hero calls $2.15

Here, my plan was to check call since he may bet a Qx and also missed draws. The sizing looks strong though, so was this a fold?

Results:

Spoiler

$7.12 pot ($0.32 rake)
Final Board: Q 6 9 7 8
Hero mucked 6 7 and lost (-$3.56 net)
BB showed T T and won $6.80 ($3.24 net)

Should I have folded the river or taken a different line? Cheers.

Any stats or info for villain?
I would bet bigger turn.
Do not like x/cal river.

flop is too small, you cannot go for value here by bvetting small. You're hurting yourself as you give all his draws a nice price.

Turn is fine, maybe little bigger, don't X/C river. It's X/F or B/F. I think he has a straight like almost always and I don't expect you would get value from worse so I think X/F

I don't understand the x/call river there, maybe only if you expect him to bluff his missed draws... I bet/fold river.

bet larger on the flop, larger on the turn, bet/fold river
