The villain open in btn 38% and fold to 3bet 66% anf fold the cbet in 3 bet pot 42%
The flop i think is not bad for me so i have tptk so i decided to bet almost 2/3 pot.
The villain call, the turn is a Q of clobs so is not a good card for me but open me a draw of color.

What do you do in turn? if you bet which size?how do you plan the hand if you check?

Check call for pot control i would suggest.

Villain is not calling with worse hands on that turn anymore. I dont think we have to protect alot - maybe against AK. If we're betting and getting raised, we only have our flush outs. In that particular case a call depends very much on the sizing.
Simply check OTT, so we keep villains bluffs in his range and are still drawing to the nuts.

I mostly check flop
and now just check call
betting small might be okay too but makes stuff complicated

We are out of position so that is a disadvantage. We have just TPTK so we probably don't want to barrel all 3 streets in 3bet pot anyway. Also if we think about our 3betting range and villain calling range and how those hit this board, it could be that we have equity disadvantage also.
I assume those are pretty much the reasons why checking the flop would be an option. If we bet I would make it a bit smaller.

And as played, just like lemon suggested I would check call the turn. Betting small is definitely an option but then we could be in an awkward spot OTR.
