Still too passive? Still lost at sea..

I would raise the turn with your position, then fold the river to a bet. The ace is a scare card, but It can beat you too.

why? it's HU and Sb just woke up on the turn? what are you trying to do?

i wouldn't have bet the flop. we're not protecting our hand here which probably isn't best, and we have the wrong end of a possible straight.

Hero has been the aggressor the entire hand.

Find out how far behind I am.

I would raise KQs in this situation preflop, what makes you think the SB flopped a str8?

Raising the turn to find out how far behind you are is a huge waste of bets. Being bet into on the turn is info enough.

Guy checks the flop and bets a very scary board into your 4th pair. That tells you all you need to know about how far behind you are.
