The reason that I only bet 1/3 pot on the flop was that this was the first time that I had actually caught a hand larger than TPTK.

Every other time I played, I opened with a 10 cent bet, then did the same on the flop. I was just trying to keep my bets consistent.

As you can see, the buy-in was $2, so I had already taken a few pots just this way anyway. I figured that remaining consistent on the flop was my best play.

I played pot-sized on the turn because after not taking it down on the flop, I was sure I'd be able to do it then.

I guess it was just bad luck that the fish caught this time.
