Default These minibets are usually draws, aren\'t they?

Full Tilt Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.25/$0.50 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter)

SB: $56.80
BB: $19.50
UTG: $46.85
MP: $18.70
Hero (CO): $52.05
BTN: $26.15

Reads: <font color="blue">Villain 26/5/0.9 over 58, all datamined. Hero has been at table for 2 orbits, and raising/cbetting some.</font>

Preflop: Hero is dealt T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (6 Players)
2 folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $2.00</font>, 2 folds, BB calls $1.50

Flop: ($4.25) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">BB bets $0.50</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $4.25</font>, BB calls $3.75

Turn: ($12.75) 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">BB bets $0.50</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises all-in to $45.80</font>

(note shove is PSB because of villains stack)

I put him on a draw or something else that is stupid, and act accordingly. Thoughts?

min bets are *usually* draws but sometimes are monsters, sometimes 'any piece'. since you beat middle pair this is fine.

Well, they're usually draws, but they're sometimes also top pair hands that villain is never, ever going to fold. The trouble with this bet, I think, is that most of the time villain will fold his club draw, but he'll still call you with his K2o, so your money generally goes in behind. I think I call the turn, because even if he hits villain is too dumb to bet anything more than $2 on the river. It sucks to let him get there for free, I know, but your hand strength is such that there's no good way to play against the total range represented by these stupid minbets.
