Pre: Standard.

Flop: I like c-betting here for sure with nut flush draw + overs. I would normally go a touch larger here and go for a straight 50% pot but that's a reasonably trivial point.

Turn: I would not expect to get a massive number of folds here with a second barrel so I would be an advocate of just checking back and realising my equity in this spot. If we were OOP I would be an advocate of making a small blocking bet of around 40c, but IP I'm happy to just check back.

River: I would not be investing any more money in this pot.

Pre and flop look standard.

The turn is close between a bet and check imo. Against a half stack I would lean towards checking, but don't hate the bet at all given how much equity we have. If villain is calling twice with any pair no draw then we can't be far away from 40% equity. Factor in the times he calls with a bare club and we're getting value plus some implieds on the river in a now bigger pot.

On the river I can't see bluffing being good so I would just give it up.

Turn is super close but I kinda prefer checking. Betting for the sake of free showdown isn't really that important on such a draw heavy board especially when you're holding the nut-redraw. Also, villain's stack size makes it so betting for implied odds/pot management sake is not necessary either. As played river is an easy check back.
