I mean, wtf is he supposed to do with most of his range here (QQ-99, AQ AJ) when I make that small raise? If he folds every time its a huge leak. I imagine he calls but if hes good and decides he needs to go broke with TT,JJ hed probably push rather than just call.

If you never bluff raise that flop, then he doesn't need to play back with worse hands. So you have to bluff to make this play profitable. I think u'll have to bluff alot more than you want to, or he thinks you do to make this good.

thoughts?

This is basically a psychology question with regards to how you think he'll interpret your raise. The hand you actually do have is probably the last hand he expects you to have, as most people's flop raising range is polarized between monster made hands (AK+ on this board), draws, and airs. Since there are so few monsters on this board, and since you may choose to slowplay them often on a board this dry, if he's a thinking player he may often interpret your raise as FOS and shove a wide range.

In reality though I generally just assume most unknown 22/18's are sort of pussies, especially slightly deep, and while he should theoretically be shoving over your raise with a wide range, he'll mostly have the goods when he does.
