    Is there any reason not to bet this river? Did you feel at all intimidated?

    And of course after I say that, I go broke to a fucking straight flush.

    your bet sizing is atrocious. 1/2 pot the flop, shove the turn. seriously, there's no reason for you to not be all in by the time you get to the river.

    as played though, def stick the rest in

    I bet more on flop -- might even push given your stack size in relation to the pot... The straight would be a gutshot, and the flush would be backdoor. Both would be very unlikely if you had bet reasonable amounts on the flop/turn.

    Bet sizing was horrible on flop and turn. My only justification is that on the flop, the side pot is dry and of course is only 900 on the turn. This is a leak in my game that I just realized. When a main pot is closed, I've been sizing my bets toward the side pot only. Had I sized my bets to the total pot, I'm betting 1500 on the flop and pushing (About 1600 left in stack) turn.

    FWIW, BB showed down Q9o and SB didn't have anything good, so I did take the pot. But I know next time about sizing my bets properly in this situation.

    Did the site not allow you to isolate the all in guy PF with a shove?

    No. I only had the option of calling the extra 60 chips or folding.
