NL50 - C-bet hits something, confusion ensues.

[toddxlogan]

Hi All-

Thought this was probably the most interesting hand of the night that I played after a pretty monster session. Looking at it now, I feel like a call looks easier than it felt at the time, but I'm curious to know if that is retrospective thinking or whatnot. I am open to critique on any street. I have no particular history with villain, FWIW. Further, keep in mind stack sizes when suggesting a line.

Villain here is 22/18/(1.8/5/.8) over about 200 hands. Generally seems competent and solid. Currently has a calls PFR of about 5.
