What is your reason to make this raise? You giving him 2:1 for his call, so if he hits a J or plays a flushdraw he will at least call your raise.
I would only call his bet. I have two overcards + a backdoorflushdraw and getting something aroung 1:5.5. I would call the flop and folding the turn unimproved against a reasonable bet.

Call or you cand easily fold to his bet if you are a more conservative player. If you dont get a Backdoor flush or an ace or king fold to a turn bet.

Flop raise is standard. Fold to the reraise. Villain has a monster. You are drawing at 6 outs and they may not be good.

Make it $4 preflop.

Raise is fine...fold to 3bet.

His flop bet was weak and I wanted to price out a flush draw or put pressure on a low/medium pocket pair to fold. Next question.

Eh, yes...I don't mind the initial raise, but why the [censored] do you want to call the reraise?

Who said I wanted to call the re-raise? Just checking my line was right ......I folded to the re-raise.

Why do people on here treat those of us that are still learning with such disdain?
