PokerStars - 15/30 NL (2 max) - Holdem - 2 players
Hand converted by Holdem Manager 3

BB: 1,220 (40.7 bb)
Hero (SB): 1,780 (59.3 bb)

Hero posts SB 15, BB posts 30

Pre Flop: (pot: 45) Hero has 9♦: 8♣:
Hero raises to 63, BB calls 33

Flop: (126, 2 players) 8♦: 9♠: 2♦:
BB checks, Hero bets 53, BB calls 53

Turn: (232, 2 players) Q♣:
BB checks, Hero bets 166, BB calls 166

River: (564, 2 players) K♦:
BB checks, Hero bets 166, fold

Results: 564 pot (0 rake)
Final Board: 8♦: 9♠: 2♦: Q♣: K♦:

Hero wins 564

Is this small sizing OTR reasonable? I thought that if I bet big he wouldnt have many hands to call with. I am blocking 8, 9 and I dont think that he is calling flop with many Kx. He could have QT, QJ. It is enough to bet bigger here?

well I would bet more on the flop close to 1/2 ps and less on the turn. On the river I like ypir sizing If you want to let go if raised. Otherwise i would bet close to 1/2ps. Weird hand. Somehow I would always bet close to 1/2ps because in HU and pretty drawy.

I would bet on every street around half pot to get the most value out of him, but a small sizing on river isn't to bad if you expect he will fold almost any hand you beat if you bet more.

River size is fine though its not really mandatory value bet anymore. Versus most opponents in micro or small stakes we should likely go for it though. But more capable creative opponents can find some check-raise bluffs and its quite tough to get that many weaker hands to call.
