Ok I flop pretty decent here, but I don't think I like a raise with this particular hand on the flop.
Turn... his bet size really sucks for me, is this supposed to be a fold here all the time?

Hasimba(SB) $20 - VP:28 PFR:20 AF:2.5 W:13|100 STL:38|78 3B:16|33 CB:50|50 N:6.71 Hands:50
Me(BB) $10.99

ALEXA69(UTG) $10.81 - VP:28 PFR:19 AF:5.0 W:25|50 STL:50|33 3B:20|0 CB:100|0 N:-5.25 Hands:32
iLiKeJimmY(CO) $10.63 - VP:17 PFR:12 AF:1.0 W:0| STL:20|92 3B:5|100 CB:0|0 N:-0.92 Hands:42

Just call again, hand is too good to fold and not strong enough to raise. Don't see any other option. Flop call is fine too.

Thanks @Harvie Had a few tough spots today...

Oh I hate these. Got to call with Jx. Kx is a great bluff card so there is that to consider. His stats are regish as well so he would do that. If you miss and he bombs river I'd give up whatever it was though. Which would really piss me off. Sometimes I wonder if a fold on the turn would be better for my mental state!

Unless you have reads about his turn barrel frequencies I can't see anything other than calling being right.

BvB his range is far wider than just Kx , and we should expect him to check call with a decent amount of stuff like better Jx and QQ he's often going to be bluff heavy here.

Unless it's a confirmed tight player who doesn't barrel lightly calling twice and giving upon the river is going to be the most normal line we see in this spot.

I'd agree with the above. I've had loads of these myself lately to and just missed them by miles lol.

So it's call down for me to.
