Here was my thinking on the hand.

Preflop - I didn't see any cries out to raise this preflop. I usually wouldn't do it.

Flop - Small pot and I may have the best hand so I took a stab at it. As someone mentioned, part of the problem with this board is people calling could have anything and I won't have much of a clue if I'm ahead or behind.

Turn - Maybe I gave the SB a free card, but I'm giving myself a free card too. I thought about betting and folding to a C/R, but I thought this would be a good board for someone to bluff. I'd rather go to showdown for one bet (at the most) if I felt I had a chance to win.

River - I think I made a mistake here, as I can not think of many hands that the SB will call with that I beat. Maybe a three, 44-77 or ace high. But does the average Party 2/4 player call with those hands or worse enough to make this a value bet?

SB showed ATo and MHING.
