Villain is playing 32/12/1.3 over 250 hands. He called the flop after thinking a little bit and called quicker on the turn. I'm wondering if my river valuebet is possibly too thin.
I'm never worried about an overstraight here, I think his range contains missed flush draws the backdoor flush and some two pair hands. What is your prefered river line?

River vbet is defo not too thin, i expect to get called by a lot worse like 2pairs, sets, maybe even top pairs cos he looks pretty bad. I think your bet might too big to get paid with a lot of this sort of stuff though, i think 50-60 is better on the river.

If you think most of his range is missed flush draws then checking to induce is fine, but i much prefer trying to valuetown worse as theres a lot he'll be willing to pay you with imo.

Don't like checking to induce as there are so many TP+ type hands in his range. I think betting 2/3 is probably most optimal vs his range. I'd make it like 77.

Personally, you've taken a pot control line the whole hand and when you bet the river it makes your hand look like a back-door flush. So to me, if you bet 50-60 it is possible that he will view your hand this way, realize it is unlikely and you may be bluffing here, and re-bluff with a hand you are ahead of, making it difficult for you to judge where you stand. I like Bazclef's sizing a lot better. It won't be easy for him to ever pop it up, and it's small enough to get beat hands to call. I know that it is very unlikely that this opponent could think that deeply, but I would still prefer to play the hand optimally, betting as much as you did should pretty much prohibit anything except a backdoor flush from calling you.

River bet is an absolute must, he'll call with loads of worse (like 2 pairs and eve one pair). It's too big though. I think the pot is $116 ish, so I'd bet around $80.

Agreed.
