turn sizing Q in 3B pots

100bb effective:

pf - open CO, BB 3bets, call.  

flop - BB c-bets, call.

turn - BB checks, bet.  

-assuming you balance only 1 bet sizing ott, what is that sizing?  how much does the sizing you choose depend on texture?

as BB's range depolarizes it makes sense to me that we'd build the pot more geometrically from the turn to the river, lining up for stacks with a polarized range.  vs a polarized range it seems better to bet small ott.  

if we also consider BB's defending fqcy ott, i think that if he's making a habit of defending at 1-a he's doing something wrong with his range otf (this probably applies more to boards where he has a significant range advantage).  it seems like that would incentivize IP to use small bet-sizing, since he's in a situation where his bluffs are printing money.  so he would use small sizing at the expense of maybe losing some value by not betting equal fractions ott/otr?

what i understand about building the pot more geometrically is that it forces villain to felt a slightly wider range than if you bet really small one street and jam large on the next.  so i guess my main Qs are 

-how much does that ^ apply when we move into a model where BB is folding turn too much

-is the amount that BB usually CF's ott incentivizing us to bet small, since our bluffs are printing money .. as opposed to building the pot geometrically and getting villain to felt slightly wider range in theory (which would give us a little more value?)
