8.80 stealing from button, turn semibluff
 

Same villain who called my button raise and minraised me on a wet flop. He called my steal really fast so I don't think he is very strong here.

Firstly I would raise more preflop. As played, while that flop hits a wide part of his range I still think you should bet 1100-1200 to fold out missed hands and maybe some jacks. I would fold the turn, his bet looks like a value bet. I don't think you are representing a flush since it is likely you would cbet with a FD. I think you are repping a set or two pair more than anything so you fold out bluffs and *maybe* TP (and more than likely all other one pair hands).

I hope he showed some signs of brain activity. Otherwise you can put chips on a virtual brick and virtually light them.

I was thinking about this hand and I don't really understand what hand you are trying to represent.

Pairs and set bet the flop, most FD bet this flop, you would have to have on hell of a tricky image to get a fold out of a pair here.
