Default Re: WA/WB with second pair good kicker?

Our villain is certainly very passive so his lead doesn't look good at all. So passive you might already be behind two pair or better. I might raise the flop, if he calls, ck through the turn to get to SD and you can fold to a bet on the river I think, unless you improve.

That's one avenue at least. Once my raise is called on the flop, I'd say I'm beaten and I'm not putting another bet in UI.

Is it a raise for information?

The vets typically hate that idea, so in this case we are raising to save ourselves more money that if we just called down I guess. If our villain just calls or 3 bets, we can stop putting money in now.

Although that might get crapped on because a passive will stop betting for lots of reasons. They're quick to shut down unless they've got a big hand. I wouldn't want to call a river bet too often after checking through the turn though after the flop raise.
