  1. I would definitely be betting the turn.

    Since you didn't bet the turn, I think it is close but you have to call on the river.

  2. What I've been finding lately is that a checked turn usually gets more value on the river. If you 2 barrel straight through, most worse hands are folding. This is a case where the turn check through induced a river bluff (not really the intent; I was trying to control pot size), but I was very surprised at the bet sizing on the end. The actions in the hand did not entirely add up, but what do you expect at 25nl...
