We had been playing heads up few hands in 6 max table. Couple of players just joined but it was still practically HU. I had 3 bet Villain once and he folded, so I thought he might 4bet light when I resteal. I had position and I could easily represent AQ, AJs or mid pair type of hands in suitable flops, so I called with 76s from BB.

Flopped gsd and he checked. I though he had midpairs and weak aces in his chk-calling range and he would fold all of his air and perhaps chk-raise AT/A8 or some random set. My plan was to bet/fold and continue betting with most turn cards. What about bet sizing? Should it be bigger?
Turn: ($34) 9

SB checks, Hero bets $20, SB folds
Got lucky on the turn. I didn't wanted to slowplay because any Q or J would make situation awkward, probably I would have gotten one more bet on river against weak aces and midpairs and some random bluffs though? Would it have been better to jam the turn instead of betting slightly over half pot?
