Hello! Probably a quite standard spot but I want to make sure that I am not making any big mistakes here. I am mainly interested in my play on the turn. I am not sure whether calling or raising here is preferable. We get value from combo draws, TP+FD type of hands and AA and we block K and J but on the other hand a decent opponent is always folding AK, AA from which we could get more value on river. Also is raising sizing ok?

Unfortunately I can't find a better hand converter for Ipoker and I dont have PT or HEM to convert the hands. The values are in cents and not in full dollars.

Weird stacks here I think they are lacking the . here.

Anyway, we are playing NL2, so you shouldn't assume that your opponent is a decent one. You should just consider on making value, as these guys are not giving up AK when they finally nailed it.

I think your play looks fine. River card is ugly and completes a lot of draws. I think it is a easy fold when villain donks pot size.

The turn raise should be bigger so you can push on river.

Yo, it's hard to read, donno what's the pot here on the turn (14$?). Anyway, both are preferable, his big bet ott gives you room to raise as well as letting him continue aggression.
