What to do?

Villain is 27/0 from 11 hands.

i would just call. flushes and straights are probably a pretty large part of a villain's range here, but so are two pair and worse sets.

why did you bet just over 1/2 pot on the flop and then pot the turn?

bet more on the flop and bet less on the turn.

To lure him into the pot, so as I can gain more money. A too large bet would have folded him away.

unless you have some specific read over the 11 hands you've played with this guy, i wouldn't be thinking like this. vs a player we assume is a fish (at the micros), it's usually safe to assume he will call a PSB with top pair, mid pair, and any draw.

Love that scratching the head thing

You should shove. Let's be honest, you're not laying this hand down against a fish with just 70bb, and even if he has a made straight or a flush, you're drawing to ten outs.

I know... it's quite hard for me not to think like this sometimes. Read it in the SuperSystem.
