You've done fine so far (although c-betting is not absolutely obligatory). And at this point, I grudgingly fold.

However, the pot is so big that I don't think calling and chasing your overs is godawful or anything -- and the case for calling would improve if you had a read on Villain that said there was a decent chance your hand was currently best.

As it is, though, we're probably drawing, we're getting about 2:1, and we'll hit one of our overs just 25 percent of the time on the turn/river, and when we do, we still might lose.

So I think folding is the best play.

Why do you cbet the pot here? 3/4 serves the same purpose in terms of FE.

In a reraised preflop pot your c/bet shouldnt be this big. Bet a bit over half the pot, if he has missed, this will get the job done aswell. There's no need to spew and get commited with just 2 overs.

Fold his reraise, I don't really see what you can beat here.

What Cbet would you make here? bit more then 1/2 pot?

Should this be higher when there were 2 cards of the same suit on the flop?

A cbet is fine (smaller as others have said) because you are representing a big pair and do not want them drawing to a straight.
