Final Pot: $20

I thought after he called my reraise so quickly, that he probably had a pocket pair, and i didnt think that there was any chance that he would fold to a continuation bet. I figured that if i checked it to him he would bet about half the pot size if he had a weak or scared hand like 44-77 or pocket paint. When he bet 7$ into a 13$ pot i thought he had a weak hand, but i just couldnt pull the trigger and chekc riase him. I couldnt do it because even though my read on him was confident, i wasnt sure if he would fold those kind of hands if i did raise him. If he is a callign station then it would take two bullets to get him off this hand( raise the flop and bet the river) or maybe even three. Do you agree with my logic or would you continuation bet this flop? Also if you do cont. bet and get called and a blank hits the turn, do you fire again? Also would a check call here really be that bad? I think that if i was gonan check call then i should just cont. bet. What are your oppinions on this hand?

but do you think he was bluffing by the size of his bet? Are the donks usually bluffing in this spot? And will they fold a pocket pair if i check raise them to say $20-25?

he could be c-betting, he could have a hand. by not c-betting yourself you know nothing.

If you're not gonna cbet, just float him -- you are happy to see overs anyway. fire on the turn.
