[nextgenneo]

its very important how he perceives you are atleast how you think he does

[all_in_lam]

o sorry i am tag reg... on more than one of his tables... 20/11

[jfish]

i would likely call and call the turn.

[wowacedude]

I would also call flop, probably call turn.
When you raise, do you plan on getting it in?
If not i don't like your raise because i don't see him bet calling with too many hands. And by folding you just build a pot that you are going to give away with decent equity.
I would rather raise this flop with air and hands that you are comfortable getting it in with.

I guess this could be way off, please correct me if that's the case.

I'd call flop and evaluate turns. The flop call should slow him down, too.

[MezmerizePLZ]

Fold standard, but i know when i was at 2/4 sometimes i'd weaklead and watch people raise me and then 3-bet with air. this is mostly knowing ur player right here

[Darkfolder]

Dont raise if you are folding to this 3-bet.

[FGators]

Umm fold? He would lead sets and overpairs and make this same play with them right? Or two pair? I can't think of a hand you are ahead of minus 57/79 but why would he repop them?

[PerDoom]

You really shouldn't be reraising this flop if you don't have a plan on what to do if he 3bets.
