200NL 89s picks up a pair + flush draw
 

villain is sobraoboy, 17/11 and pretty by-the-book. i almost just c/f'd turn because i don't think he'd bet a weak hand, but then i was like "meh i'd play a set the same way, maybe i have some FE." pretty sure he calls me with overpairs though.

i fold the flop most of the time prob, but i thought his button smoothcall was peculiar and he may be raising me on the flop with lots of hands.

looks fine. even if button looks weird, i still prob fold flop. its simply too expensive to go to showdown w. this hand most times UI.

against this guy i definitely like folding to flop raise.

i'd often fold the flop, especially against this guy. once you pick up the flush draw, i don't see why you would c/f the turn. i think it's c/c or c/r. personally i like c/c and then lead all-in if you improve. it'll only be 110 into 180 so i don't think he'll find a fold with KQ/AQ, which i think are his most likely hands. which is also why i don't like a crai on the turn, b/c i don't think he folds those that often (not to mention sets).

I agree with this... and he definately doesn't fold turn
