500 into what looks like a pot of 850. I think I would be more inclined to bet about 3/4 of the pot (600 - 650).

I always prefer betting about 3/4 pot continuation bets. It also gets more money in the pot with our hand. Also if he has a hand like JT or something, we are charging him a greater price to draw. What would you bet here supa?

IMHO, no. 500, 600, 650, it's all fine.

Please note I don't mind the bet of 500, I just personally would have bet a bit more.
