BoB against good regular

[Daddy Warbucks]

Villain is Backd00rNutz, who i've played a fair bit with, but never really tangled with. He doesn't get out of line too much.

Is preflop standard?
Is the flop raise standard? I assume to have the best hand there often.
He autochecked the turn, bet it? I don't think he'll ever fold top pair there.
River is an easy fold right?

I wouldn't raise the flop because he ain't folding many better hands. IMO he's calling with TP+ all the time so your bet doesn't accomplish much UNLESS you are going to 2nd barrel the turn but I don't think that's the best line anyway. As played on the riv I would prob fold because there aren't many hands that call the flop that we beat now.

i don't think he means to bluff with the flop raise, i assume it's for value. But i don't really think theres too much value to be had. I'd call the flop, encourage more little bluffs from him, control the pot, etc.

He's not folding better hands on the flop, but how often does he actually have a better hand? My hand is very vurnerable, and any overcard on the turn is scary.

Oh I misread your op as saying you didnt have the best hand there much of the time...
The flop raise is ok for protection but I'd rather just commit to calling most 2nd barrels than raise now because he prob puts more bets in that way.

Call the flop with middle pair. Rest looks ok as played.

Ah, ok.

Call flop, if he bets again, calls turn, eval river. If he doesn't bet turn, then you bet turn.

Why are you playing this hand non standard?
