Default 5/10 KQ TP turn pairs board vs. aggro TAG

Villain is WhoIsThisGuy. I have him at like 18/15. I haven't done much at the table yet, but I've only been there for 2 orbits or so. Our past history suggests that he probably thinks that I'm very very aggro and possibly erratic.

Honestly I think I should have folded preflop. I'll usually call if there's a fish behind to come along as well, but that wasn't the case in this hand. On the flop... raise or call? The turn I thought was a fold because I don't think he's double barreling there without a big draw or a big hand, and if he had a big draw there's probably a good chance he'd fire on the river whether he hit or missed.

flop call is fine. nothing wrong with folding turn based on your read.

a fold preflop would be horrible. With your read of what he thinks of you I think a raise on the flop would be good here. It will look like you are making a play and may come over the top pretty light.

Why fold the turn? Arent alot of people more likely to 2 barrell this board when it looks like hero could be chasing the flush draw (or just flat out floating)?

Maybe a 18/15 guy is less likely to bluff the turn?

don't like the flop call at all, not exactly sure how you intend on folding that turn when we're only really afraid of AK or AA, and it's highly unlikely he has either
