I felt very odd about how this went down, any suggestions would be helpful.
BTN was a 41/3 over 130 hands and BB was 33/33 over about 80 hands.

CO ($8.69) 435bb
BTN ($0.70) 35bb
SB ($0.98) 49bb
BB ($4.22) 211bb

Pre-Flop: (0.03, 6 players) Hero is UTG A♥: J♦:
Hero raises to $0.06, UTG+1 calls $0.06, 1 fold, BTN calls $0.06, 1 fold, BB calls $0.04

Flop: 5♣: 2♥: 3♥: ($0.25, 4 players)
BB checks, Hero checks, UTG+1 checks, BTN checks

Turn: Q♥: ($0.25, 4)
BB checks, Hero bets $0.12, 2 folds, BB calls $0.12

River: 5♥: ($0.49, 2)
BB checks, Hero bets $0.13, BB calls $0.13

Final Pot:

UTG+1 lost $0.06

Looks good to me ... riverbet could be bigger imo but I don't see what's odd.

Turn: Are you bluffing? If so, bet bigger.

River: Nobody has a set before the river came. It wasn't played out like that. Versus a 40/3 guy you bet much bigger. You lost a lot of value here.

I don't actually know why I was betting to be honest...I didn't know if I should bet or check in that spot, I felt like I could try and represent the Q In a way so it would have been more a bluff in retrospect. Agreed that I lost a lot of value on the river. I bet small because I really thought he would not call with just a pair. Good lesson for me though thank you!

I would just check the turn against 3 players. I don’t think semi bluffing work that well 4 ways and if you bet you can easy make it 20c or so. The river I would bet at least half a pot for value as well.

I would start betting already OTF. I assume you have decent fold equity and you have gutshot, nut backdoor flush draw and 2 overs.. So many good barrel cards OTT.

As played I think your sizings can be bigger.

i agree. Otr it comes down to making a dessision if u are gonna value bet vs Qx or vs flush. And sinec we dont know much about the oponneti would bet smaller as well cause versus big sizing he might start folding even smaller flushes. So over all i think it is better to bet small here. If he was a whale than just make it pot since he would never fold a flush and might station even Qx from time to time.
