Default 200+BB deep-- What\'s my line to maximize value here?

Villain is 21/11/2 over about 180 hands. Seemed to be playing pretty well and not making any big mistakes. I was torn on the turn as to whether or not I wanted to just call, as I felt this player could get away from a one pair hand, but I also suspect that giving a free card here this deep is suicidal. Call the turn here hoping to trap him into making a bet on the river, or raise hoping to get a call or all in?

ps: my goal here is to maximize my value, but being over 200BB deep, is there EVER a fold if he pushes the turn?

You played it fine so far and you should never ever in a billion trillion years consider even considering folding to a push. Turn raise is bit small I think, otherwise fine.

Looks good so far. Hope he calls and then value-bet the river. $9 on the river feels about right. Of course, if he's willing to put it all in, you will oblige.

Never a fold sorry, I have position, (your play looks good) I am also tempted to call and raise the river?

Problem is unless he has 99/66 your "almost" mini raise makes it easy to fold out virtually any K, whereas with a turn call and $8.60 in the pot, if he bets again, you can raise an amount he is almost duty bound to call *shrugs*

Having said all that, I probably raise the turn too... LOL
