this guy was 33/5, so pretty hard to put on a hand pre-flop
do you think I missed value not reraising the river?
I was afraid because I wouldn't know what to do if he shoved, so I played the safe way when the board paired

I also didn't bet more on river because I though he might be on a draw, so maybe he would call with TQ, JQ, 8T, 8J or maybe even with any Q if he put me on a draw

also, there're 7 hands which beats me, and probably 2 or 3 that he would call a big reraise with and lose

You should have bet at least $8 on river. Otherwise I think its fine.

bet bigger on all streets well flop is okay ish but just bet bigger in general, if hes not folding to 2.8 hes not folding to 3.4 3.6 etc etc

You're not a 33/5 fish though I assume.

Disagree. He's bb so any 9x is in his range and his stats wouldn't suggest he would let 92o go on the flop or turn.

I bet river bigger obviously. As played I think a shove is good because he isn't folding any 9 there.
