Preflop is standard open, BB calls. On the flop I catch straight so I decide bet high and BB check-calls here. On the turn open to my flush draw to I bet again, BB check-calls again. On the river how much should bet in Your opinion? Many hands here probably check-fold here, busted flush draws, sets should check-raise on the flop, overpairs on flop/turn most of times fold on the river. Small bet to get call from some hands of range opponent or provoke maybe check-raise bluff or bet high to look my hand like bluff?

I think 2/3 pot on River. You dont need to Worry of stronger holding. Sometimes You can push River.

So deep I don't think shoving would be smart. Than you get only action of a 3 or better straight.
I think around $1,20 as value bet is big enough against a unknown.

No problem with pushing when we make fold Split holdings. I did not recognize it was deep.

What worse will call?
If opponents range contains a lot of hands that would call, then you can bet big.
Otherwise, you can bet small hoping that someone might "bluff catch"

87 beats you, otherwise you have the nuts. So betting up to 1/2 pot would make sense, since 87 is a possible hand for opponent.

Edit: I had a look at the replayer.

Here you did exactly that, but folded — yet the only hands that beat you are 73 (unlikely) and 87, so you were putting opponent on exactly that hand?

Yes I fold after check-raise after full tank timebank, on Play this hand I don't see bluff and I put him on 87.

On flop in GTO world its check range but on nl5 betting nuts can't be terrible as opponents wont go crazy on you. Turn betting is also ok, but I would reduce sizing, 1/2 pot max - you dont need protection as you have additional flushdraw and you want to give him rope to do something stupid.
On river I think I like overbet most because a lot of straights are raising on flop/turn so I feel comfortable with 3x there and I'm probably calling shove too. I dont expect nl5 player to slowplay straight there a lot.

I also saw what happened on river in replayer.... and its beyond terrible. You cant bet small with 3rd nuts and fold to not even medium size raise. He will raise there EVERY 3x he has and this alone is worth it to call for split, he will also often get induced to raise as bluff and try to fold your AQ.
