Default Re: NL50 - bet sizing?

I originally posted that your raise on the flop was fine but then I got to wondering about our villain's range...

We're Beating: 44/55/66/77/88/99/TT
We're Crushed: QQ/KK/AA
We're Flipping: AQ/AK

A read on our opponent would certainly help out, but I think I might just smooth call this flop and re-evaluate on the turn. If we dodge an A,K, or Q we're probably still in the lead (except for overpairs which are coolers), and can extract more value from those hands that we crush.

Edit: Grunched post originally and then saw that the OP had no problems stacking off here. If so, then I think the raise is fine.

with this flop were better than flipping agianst AQ/AK.
smaller poker pairs are a huge part of his range IMO and some random overs trying to play back at OP in in his range to I think.
board is dry small raise with the intention of getting it in is goot imo. esp if a large raise gets him to fold a small PP that might get it in if the turn comes another low card.
