Played only 16 hands with him so far.

I hit TP w/ ok kicker OOP. So I bet, however, opponent doesn't want to give up the pot without the fight.
What do you think, how did I play this? Should I bet on the turn as well?

The flop reraise is terrible, especially against an unknown. Since you essentially turned your hand into a bluff on the flop, you should definetely fire again on the turn. As played, I can't fold the river, but I don't like it.

Would you just call? Or muck?

If you call and he bets 3/4 of a pot on that turn. What would you do?

Call me a nit, but I actually fold to villain's flop raise. You have a marginal (at best) hand OOP with a tiny pot. It's very tough to outplay your opponent after continuing past this flop so I fold.

The flop re-raise is really bad, I think.
