Two simple hands

Unknown opponent but hasn't done anything crazy so far, has played pretty standard.

1. Retarded river bet size or fine?

Hand 1
-I think the sizing kind of sucks if we plan on b/f and he's capable of turning Jx into bluffs. Otherwise, I think b/f is fine.

Hand 2
-I think this is a value bluff for sure. Wouldn't be surprised to see him fold better on occasion and call worse on occasion. Not sure which happens more frequently.

1- rather bet 220. fold now
2- standard.

agree, but i think betting 160 is awful. if you dont think you can value bet with a consistent sizing just check. it's like you're asking yourself to get owned
