Hand vs unknown player, preflop open on CO. On flop I decide cbet with middle pair. On turn I get aces up, board is very wet so I cbet again and after opponent raise I think about call or re-raise all in here. 99 possible one combination, jacks should 3bet preflop 3x combo sixes another hands I beat here and because on river many cards are bad for me so I go all in.

dont like the lead on flop, caller has more jacks in range and is in position, you are better going with a check/call flop. you could alwasy delay cbet the turn and it does the same thing as your cbet on flop. the turn is a good card for you but sucks, villain could be drawing to an FD when you get raised. It seems just like an unlucky hand

PF ok.

F I think this board is too wet to bet only 1/2. I would either bet big or check-call.

T bet ok. But I wouldn't go for the 3bet. Is there anything worse that calls your 3bet? (J9? A6?). If he was bluffing he will muck it, and if he had it he is going to call. I would've just called and leave V bluffs open.

As mkBISCUIT its not good board for loose cbet. You can even simplify your gameplan there to x/c and x/r with hands you want to continue as people tend to overstab IP.
As for hand in general - if you bet flop - use smaller sizings OOP in SRP. On turn its spew. He could have AJ, he could have set and draws will often have a lot of equity vs you. Just call instead of shoving and isolating yourself.

I prefer check vs bet on flop.

If the pot is SRP or not doesn’t influence your bet sizing.
What should influence you bet sizing is: nut and range advantage, stack depth and board connectivity.
OOP, nut advantage, with no range advantage, deep, on a wet board: check or bet big.
