BTN: 195.1 BB
Hero (SB): 103.2 BB
BB: 100 BB
UTG: 243.1 BB
MP: 206.5 BB
CO: 265.5 BB

Hero posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has A♥ Q♥

fold, fold, fold, BTN raises to 2.5 BB, Hero raises to 11.1 BB, fold, BTN calls 8.6 BB

Flop: (23.2 BB, 2 players) 6♥ 9♥ J♣
Hero bets 7 BB, BTN calls 7 BB

Turn: (37.2 BB, 2 players) 7♥
Hero bets 13.1 BB, BTN calls 13.1 BB

River: (63.4 BB, 2 players) A♠
Hero bets 22.2 BB

I'm just gonna guess that at 100BBESS in a 3bet pot, solver always wants stick the money in by river.

I went small here because my hand blocks many of the villain's value range as in I hit way too many things on board.

I guess I'm just asking for opinions.

Cant agree with the sizings. Flop is draw heavy. Would you make the same size if you had JJ-AA, AJ, KJ? So bigger bets OTF and OTT. However you can make a smaller bet on the river like 50%. You love and hate this A. You hate it more. It gives top2 on AJ but it's a scary card to hands like JT, QJ and KJ

That's a totally different animal because my flop play was rather a creative line, I was gonna CR, and then I changed my mind to bet small/call or bet small/shove.

It's villain depended, but with a flush drawe I don't think a small Cbet on the flop is to bad. Against a passive player I would bet at least half pot on every street and try to get it in on the river with the flush.

Like the small cbet- you have buckets of equity and do not want to get blown off hand. If you bet big and he shoves, I think you can call, but at that point you are pretty behind , guessing he have set or 2 pair to shove,

As for smal cbet flop, you want to keep all lower fd in, I like the 1/3 pot on flop and turn, but river I am shipping sticks and hoping he has lower flush so I get paid!!

In 3bet pot, I think any flush will raise/shove anyway so you should be covered.

I do not think any fd would shove on flop or turn, why not click spoiler?

Because we are not supposed to be result oriented.

We're not.
There is a saying in business, "what gets measured, gets managed"
It is all very well to just concentrate on how you played the hand,[1] but if you are not aware of your results overall, are you playing poker or just gambling?

[1] as coach Bencb says in the rant below, you need to play, review, study and constantly improve.
The trick is to know when you're improving. Don't focus on results, but it is still important to be aware of them

No, you misunderstood me. Not FD but made flush. For 100BBESS, if you make flush on unpaired board in 3bet pot in blind battle, you are always going to play the hand for stacks. And the villain's action on river is indeed correct according to solver. So here I'm betting small to target wider range but in case if you are up against lower flush you are still covered.
