BTF the raise to $40 seems about right but I guess some would argue for a slightly bigger raise maybe to $60.

Before the flop betting the pot is $85 or so after rake. With a big hand on a semi-drawfull flop I'd bet maybe $70 or $80 but $60 can't be that bad unless you rarely underbet the pot (against regular observant opponents). Then it looks like you are trying to trap.

Before the turn betting the pot was $205 if I didn't miss any more fingers and toes. Your going all the way with this hand and since there is a potential draw you might as well put your opponent with slightly more chips than the pot all-in. If there was no draw I'd bet about half his stack now and the rest on the river.

These are pretty much my thoughts exactly. The only thing I
might add is that if there were not two clubs on the turn,
instead of betting half his stack, you might bet something
more like 75, as he would be more likely to pay a bet like
that and maybe a 100 bet on the river off if he does not
have a king, and he will probably checkraise a 75 bet on
the turn if he does have one. But then again, he may not
checkraise with a hand that would have called off half his
stack on the turn and half his stack on the river, so you
may be letting him off cheaply. It comes down to how often
you think he will checkraise a smaller bet on the turn
compared to how often he will call off half his stack on
the turn and half on the river.
