Flop Analysis
Small betting is preferred on this dynamic board. We hold bottom pair but have massive equity with a flush draw and open-ended straight draw.
We missed a massive value opportunity by checking back a nutted straight on both the turn and river.

The Ace is a mandatory bet. We have improved to a broadway straight and must start building the pot immediately.
Note: Checking back a straight on the turn is a significant value loss; we need to build the pot while SB is likely to call with worse.
Checking back the river is a massive error. We have the second-best possible straight and SB has checked twice, showing zero interest in the pot.
Note: Checking back the river with a straight is a 'cardinal sin' of value betting; you must bet to get paid by SB's bluff-catchers.
