Question 1: Bet flop, and (if so) what size?
Question 2: What bet size on the turn?
Answer 1:
Limpers range can be quite wide, my opponents did not necessarily hit the flop. Stronger hands that may have hit the JT probably wouldn’t have limped (e.g KQ, JT, JQ, KJ). A small 50% bet here should be enough for them to fold their crap limping hands which make up most of their range. If they call, I still have the Ace and BDFD as a backup.
Answer 2:
Assuming my opponent doesn’t often have an Ax here, I should bet to target Jx and Tx. 50% sizing might get called by these hands. Though, given the pot was getting large maybe I should have bet 33% to encourage a call from these hands.
