Good fold IMO. If I was gonna raise I'd make it like $1.25 on the flop though. You dont beat much and 2 orbits really is nothing when it comes to reads. I'd play it the same.

I often limp behind here, esp. with a very aggressive player in the hand. When I hit my hand hard, I will be able to extract. If not, I won't be forced to play a big pot against an aggressive player with a mediocre hand. But a raise is good here in general. I like it better with suited cards, though, because you have one more way to hit hard.

Your flop raise isn't big enough. Not impressive enough. And of course he brings out the minbet, big bet-line that I see all the damn time on NL10. I have trouble dealing with it. But because he called your raise here, I think it's a fold. But I tilt over it.
And btw: you don't need to raise this flop. He seems like the kind of player, that will never fold to a raise like that, because that means giving up and surrender. Only more nitty players will fold here. So you should only raise here if you really think you have the best hand and want to get your money in. Your hand is quite mediocre though. So I am actually content to flat call his minbet. You have to expect a PSB on the turn though. But you probably have implied odds to draw and you still might have the best hand here.
