Flop Analysis
C-betting is standard here to extract value from Jx, 9x, and various spade draws. While we bet small, a larger sizing is also highly effective to maximize value and protection.
When the board gets highly connected, shift from pure aggression to a mix of checking and smaller value bets to manage the pot.

Checking is a very sound tactical adjustment as the board becomes extremely connected, bringing in straights like KQ and Q8.
After the turn goes check-check, we have a clear value bet on the river, though a smaller sizing is preferred to ensure we get looked up by Jx or Tx.
Note: Sizing is slightly too large; a smaller bet (around 35-40% pot) targets a wider range of Villain's bluff-catchers like AJ or KJ.
