Please raise the flop k thx

[littlebu]

I would have raised the flop bet to around $7

[reutel]

Raise the flop. Don't minraise the turn. Especially the second time. He wants to play with you

[wingchunflush]

if you raise the flop its easier to get it in on the turn.

The consensus seems to be raise that flop.

Also, those mini raises on the turn are silly. He must have some kind of hand, especially after he re-raised you. as played to that point, that was the place to get it all in, IMO.

[wallywojo]

lead the flop, much better for possibility of 3bet on flop to shove.

the only reason you check the flop is to c/r.
