Villain was new at the table, no other info. I think my turn bet is a bit small? I'm using what I set up with gg awhile ago and I think I need some new bet sizes. I picked up a gs to go with my TP so I can go bigger on that turn right? The flush bricks on the river but this is still a check right?

GG Poker - $0.02 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by Holdem Manager 3

UTG: $2.49 (124.5 bb)
MP: $2.02 (101 bb)
CO: $1.28 (64 bb)
Hero (BTN): $2.16 (108 bb)
SB: $1.73 (86.5 bb)
BB: $2.79 (139.5 bb)

SB posts $0.01, BB posts $0.02

Pre Flop: (pot: $0.03) Hero has A♠: K♠:
3 folds, Hero raises to $0.06, fold, BB calls $0.04

Flop: ($0.13, 2 players) T♥: 8♥: A♣:
BB checks, Hero bets $0.10, BB calls $0.10

Turn: ($0.33, 2 players) Q♦:
BB checks, Hero bets $0.24, BB calls $0.24

River: ($0.81, 2 players) 9♠:
BB checks, Hero checks

Spoiler

Results: $0.81 pot ($0.04 rake)
Final Board: T♥: 8♥: A♣: Q♦: 9♠:

BB shows J♣: 7♠:: (Straight, Queen High)
(Pre 32%, Flop 20%, Turn 16%)

Hero shows A♠: K♠:: (One Pair, Aces)
(Pre 68%, Flop 80%, Turn 84%)

BB wins $0.75

Against a new player yes. Bet/fold is an option since nobody seems to want the hand all that much.
I like the check down against opponents I've never seen before because I can see how they play.

Cbet sizing on the turn seems fine. Only if I know villain is a calling station I would size up the flop and turn Cbet sizing. River you could go for a thin value bet, but read less it's really hard to get to much action of weaker.

Your line seems fine and sizing is also reasonable. Bet/fold is a bit risky and you'd be guessing against the villain next hand too.

Hello,

I would play the same until the turn, I don't see the value of worse hands on the river, except for an Ax but it has to be very calling.
Now it might be interesting to turn our hand into a bluff to throw some two pair; but I would consider it when I was OOP, IP 99% of the time I am playing chbh.
