Hi,
All the opponent after me are unknowns.
I think CO is a fish because he is limping and not full staked.
I think this is a good for C-bet. I think the sizing is good.
I want to bet Turn for cheap showdown. How do you think about the sizing? Do I play it okay starting from preflop?
Thanks.

Hi JHTAN,

Preflop: looks fine

Postflop: We shouldn't bet the turn for "cheap" showdown but rather because we can get value from a fish.

The cheap showdown and protection are just by products of our value bet which I think is fine even though it's thin.

Well played.

I am sorry, my English is just average. what do you mean by 'products' in the above sentence?

Sorry that should be one word: byproduct - as in a secondary result of our value bet.

So we get value but ALSO protect our hand.
