Pre, flop and turn I think is fine vs UTG. Perhaps could raise but I thought his value range would bet the river and I would get more value from his possible bluffs.

So having said that is river sizing too heavy? Go like 1/3 pot and hope for crying call better we think? I was hoping he had rivered an A and was checking SDV and could call on what looks like bluff card.

Think your line is fine but I'd make the river a lot bigger. Don't like raising the turn as I think too many hands fold. River sizing $1.90 would have been about right imo to target Ax and other PP that want to see a showdown.

No need to go for a small sizing here or anything imo, he can still have stuff like QQ/KK and a few Ax which he might pay off with. I think the current sizing is fine with a premium value-hand.

It's unlikely that small bet would be significantly lower EV or anything, the truth is that he is just going to be folding a large amount whatever we do. Will probably be correct to bet smallish with some frequency.
