Villain was fairly unknown, playing 30/24 over 134 hands. He was on 2 of my tables but hadn't rly messed with me. Just called twice BvB, and folded to cbets.

Thoughts
i guess flop is a value bet if he calls with some Ahi type hands, but i mean, i wasn't thrilled about any of my options.

I mean, people are probably going to say bet turn, but if i bet; i don't get much better to fold; i have very poor equity against any better hand; and i just get in a rly gross river spot i think..

Hand
Am i ok just giving up on the turn? or should i c/c turn to catch floats?

96s is a pretty horrible hand to open from CO with a 30/24 behind you. As played I would barrel the turn purely as a bluff and shut down if Villain doesn´t fold.

Yes you are right, i would not normally do this, but thnx for pointing this out.

I would bet the turn for protection. The board is getting drawy as!. On the river, I am thinking c/c on blanks.
