Default small pot, bad draw, boring hand

villain is aa_legend. tough tricky, kinda lag. what is he up to here? to me it looks like he's trying to maximize FE, probably with a flush draw. should i have just called flop?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

BB ($2619.04)
UTG ($2339.74)
Hero ($4562.03)
Button ($1970)
SB ($1973)

Preflop: Hero is MP with 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $10.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $70</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB (poster) calls $60, BB calls $50.

Flop: ($210) T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets $100</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $405.3</font>, SB folds, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to $1096.58</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: $1711.88

what about his barely over half pot reraise leads you to believe he is "trying to maximize fold equity?"

oops sorry, i was talking about the "bet small to induce a raise that you can reraise" line, it just looks so strong, so i was wondering wtf it meant and howi should react, i just worded it like a drunk ssnl poster.

most opponents wont make 1/2 pot or 1/3 pot raises with the nut flush draw, they would be bombing away for full pot trying to maximise FE. I think your outs are clean, id call the extra 700 getting 3.4-1
