Catching a Floater ... Worth the reward?
 
Ok, I have sat down and played about 35 hands and I have noticed that everytime someone cbets villain has floated them. Since it didn't cost me that much to to see showdown, do you think it will be worth the reward to keep the villain honest?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

Hero ($24.50)
UTG ($26.90)
MP ($24.70)
CO ($18.55)
Button ($28.85)
SB ($28.55)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, Button calls $0.25, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $1.25</font>, Button calls $1.

Flop: ($2.60) Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $2</font>, Button calls $2.

Turn: ($6.60) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets $2</font>, Hero calls $2.

River: ($10.60) T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets $2</font>, Hero calls $2.

Final Pot: $14.60

Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">
Hero has 7d 7s (one pair, sevens).
Button has 6h Ac (high card, ace).
Outcome: Hero wins $14.60. </font>

I fold turn in these spots. If I am going to call down a floater i need a better hand than 66 on that turn

I'd rather raise the turn.

c/r?
anyone think thats a bad idea vs such dumb villains):
they will often call your raise with many hands and river would be evry difficult to play with 77 ooop

I'd raise and most villain with a brain cell or two would fold a J or a 9. I'd shut down on river if called. This also prevents villains from just carelessly betting turns when you check to them in 2-bet pots. It's something you should have in your toolbox.

I either c/r or bet the turn if I know he is a serial floater.

Most of the time he is laying down his hand.
