SB has a PFR of 9, a 3bet of 0 and a total AF of 1.0

I'm really unsure about the best way to play hands like these. On the turn I feel like I have the best hand and that it's hard for him to have anything to call me down with. I know it's a bad sizing on the turn, looking back I would probably bet 6BB.

I think I misplayed the river and that it should have been a call. I feel like when a player with this type of profile leads into me, he will most likely only call my raise with a better full house than mine. At the same time, I felt at the time I played this that his rage here would include a bunch of random K10xx that he could of called the turn with.

What would you guys say?

BTN: 80 BB
SB: 100 BB
Hero (BB): 104 BB
UTG: 120 BB
MP: 201 BB
CO: 132.5 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has 4J109
UTG calls 1 BB, fold, fold, BTN calls 1 BB, SB calls 0.5 BB, Hero checks

Flop : (4 BB, 4 players) 44A
SB checks, Hero bets 2 BB, fold, fold, SB calls 2 BB

Turn : (8 BB, 2 players) J
SB checks, Hero bets 2 BB, SB calls 2 BB

River : (12 BB, 2 players) Q
SB bets 3 BB, Hero raises to 21 BB, SB calls 18 BB

Turn you want to bet bigger. 6bb is perfect here. On the river it for sure feels like blocking bet with a 4x but not sure he calls a raise with 4x. He wont call this big a raise at least. So if you raise the river here make size smaller to loose less when we are beat and get called more often when he has 4x.

If you think you have the best hand often then why make it so small on the turn? We have position so can expect to be able to check behind the river, if that's what you want, most of the time.

I would just be calling the river lead. I don't see what he's calling with for even a small size raise apart from some random 4's

I think it's way better to build the pot on the turn than the river in this scenario and you definitely should be betting bigger there. River is getting a bit thin and while I'd probably make this raise given the limit and how underrepresented your hand is I'd go lower than 4x.

Thank you all for your input!
