    Why did you check the river?

    Was this to induce? If so then why would you be looking to fold?

    on the flop im betting 6/7 the call i dont put him on a set because i think most players at that level would raise to protect there hand against the flush. turn i bet £16 if he calls  that i put him on a flush already or a flush king high flush draw because of the call. and the river i would not check. im shoving because you would call the all in anyway so might as well put the pressure on the other player . if he has the full house unlucky.

    Need a really good note on the opponent to think about folding.

    The fact you check the river means his jamming range is a bit wider, and can include some bluffs with say the Kh in his hand, plus some Ax hands where the kicker is a decent heart, which he thinks he is betting for value.

    Flop bet size doesn't need to be much bigger, but turn can be 2/3 pot or a bit larger.

    Just bet bigger throughout - 3/4 pot, then you don't have a choice on river.

    I agree my bet size is a bit to small i hated my call but just could not put it down he had 77 for full house.
