I would most likely starting raising the flop. The BB isn't much off a factor with his/her tiny stack.
if you call you can't raise if the short stack would go all-in.
As played the turn play is standard and I would go for around 40bb bet on the river for value with the set.

Cheers,

CO line looks he has something on the one hand but on the others he wants cheap showdown OTR. You dont let that happen. His range seems like Tx hands and overpairs.

So i am gonna make big juicy bet around 75%-100%

Pre, flop and turn I play the same. On the flop I don't really have a raising range, unconnected rainbow board - we want to keep villains range wide and don't slow him down from betting overpairs on multiple streets.

On the river you have to ask yourself how much he would want to call with an overpair. In my opinion, this is the value portion of his range you want to extract value from. Will he fold JJ+ vs a half pot river bet? - I will probably go something like 50-55BB and expect to be called by JJ+. When jams over this though, I will fold (and log out :f_p:).

Okay, I'm glad that you understand my sentiment because getting CRAI on river is the stuff of nightmares. And guys, do you realize that the V doesn't have to pay to see my cards if I go for big value for instance? I found this spot to be extremely irritating to be honest.

Yes, you don't want to go too big, because he can make a tough laydown with JJ+ and see your cards anyway. It's unlikely that you're bluffing aswell, because I mean what hands do you really have that call a big bet on the turn and then bluff when the flush completes? You call Q♣:J♣: multiway on the flop, call a huge turn-bet and turn this into a bluff on the river? You turn a Tx into a bluff? What bluffs do you have?

If you dont have info that he is a tricky player i dont think he sets you up for a check raise. I dont see many flushes in his range as well. The only reasonable flush would be 8♥:7♥: witch beats you OTT. It's questionable that a TAG player will open raise this hand from CO. There is crucial card OTF as well witch is T♥:. It blocks A♥:T♥:, J♥:T♥:, Q♥:T♥:, K♥:T♥:

Dont let fear cloud your judgement. You are going to miss a lot of value that way long run. Try to be more objective. You want to charge hardly his overpairs

I want to add something else. A smaller bet might look like value bet in his eyes. Witch is exactly what it is. But a bigger bet is more polar. So he might fold to 50% and call you 100%.

I be raising the turn, to 50bb, the issue you have is being deep stacked, normally when you are deep stacked you want to be a little more cautious. Once river check I am betting. I think you really need to just worry about set over set with 10’s. I feel back door flush is unlikely, I would be putting villian on A10 or 1010- AA IMO
