I forgot to check my reads before deciding what to do that's why i don't give them to you.
I didn't want to play for all my stack and decided to fold turn.
I would apreciate your opinion on the best way to play this hand without reads.

Why you do call OTF if you plan to fold OTT to a half pot bet? Do you think that the villain will check OTT often? I don't think so. You either fold OTF or you go with your hand, everything else is a money burn. I will call OTF and will just shove OTT. If I only call a x/r with 2-pair or better on such a flop I will be folding 95%+, can't afford that.

I would go bigger pre flop with my 3b sizing say to 8bbs although you could even go bigger than that.I think OTF when you get Xr from what i see this tends to be mostly draws obv occasionally it will be sets but I find this tends to happen more on the turn, so imo i would just look to get the money in on the flop i could be wrong here but i think its a better option than calling a Xr to then fold on the turn with a premium hand..
