Default NL 50 TPTK facing small reraise

Villian in hand is 21/6/1.8 over 150 hands and I have no other read on him.
What to do here? Does most of his range consist of A4s, A9s and 44 here? I've only recently started playing FR, so are people capable of raising here w/ worse hands?

Call the min raise.

Check the turn.

Call or fold to villain's turn bet depending on what the turn card is, and how big his bet is relative to the remaining stacks.

If you get to the river with a decent amount of money left, bet/fold if you think he has TPWK or better. C/c if you think he might have been on a draw and missed.

"21/6/1.8 over 150 hands" is a pretty good sample, but you can't rule out AJ or AQ entirely from his range given a min-raise over your c-b.

"I have no other read on him." is obv. less useful than having a read, but it is what it is.

You may very well be beaten, but folding everytime you get min-raised is generally a bad idea unless you have a read based on more than 150-hands worth of stats on villain. So, call the raise and check/reevaluate on the turn.

i dont think vpip 21 calls a strong PFR with A9s or A4s... i would think 99 is far more likely, or AQ/AJ.

what re the suits? he could be on NFD....

Ace and one of the other cards were suited.

From my experience at FR so far(only 8K hands) is that the play is really passive, so I didn't consider the NFD being a big part of his range bc the A was one of the suited cards

good players are not passive, but there are a lot of weak ones who are.
that raise would not make me hate my hand and want to fold, but this player does not seem very aggressive so i might just call, see what the turn brings. if u bet the turn and get raised u can fold at a healthy loss, but not everything. if u check turn he will make a good bet with TPGK and maybe make u fold the best hand.

there is not enough after the min raise to clearly indicate that you are beaten.
