Small Stakes Shorthanded NL Poker Forums

So, this beauty played like 65/38 over 88 hands, didnt fold to cbets, but raised them (25% over 16 samples). So i thought he would raise his top pairs on the flop, and on this board also all his stronger hands.
On these kind of very drawheavy boards i like to bet my strong second pairs against fish two streets for value.
So i expected him to raise his whole valuerange on the flop.
How can he raise the turn then?????

Even from fish the turn raise is usually so strong. Good on you for betting the turn, but unless hes an insane maniac I don't see how we can continue in the hand. Even if he has a combo draw you're equity isn't great.

if you call here....

are you gonna fold on literally half the deck if he bets again on the river?

He also raises a draw pretty much always on the flop and even as a manica he won't value raise worse on the turn, so the only thing you might have beat is a heart draw.
And even maniacs are capable of slowplaying sometimes.

There might be some merit in c/calling turn and c/c many rivers.
He doesn't have us beat all too often and we give him room to bluff when we can call and not when we have to fold or get into a horrible spot (what we do if he raises the turn).
