Villian seemed to be folding to agression post flop so I decided to raise his bet with bottom pair. Then I think I had to call his min 3bet. On the turn when he bets again I figure my bottom pair is completely beat unless he holds some other 2 but i'm sure his kicker is better if so. Clear Fold?
I don't think it is a good idea limping 42o 22BB deep - I don't think it is good 75BB either, maybe Cog can :)))As played I call flop. As you played I think you have to call his min 3-bet and hate myself for having to call 50 into 400 on the turn
I agree with crstn here.Usually ou play 42o with a raise, against opponents that fold a lot to raises. The possible exception would be against a player so weak/bad/exploitable to bluffs during postflop play, that you literally can just limp any two cards and profitably steal pots in some way (whether it's a flop stab or two barrels or three barrels or just having reads that your opponent donks pot with anything decent otherwise gives up to 1-2 barrels, that's the type of reads you need to limp this hand in my mind).
If we raise the flop, shouldnt it be better to raise it to, say, 160-180.
@Mika something around 160 sounds fine to meas for the hand do not raise flop when he leads. you are bloating the pot with a extremly weak hand. Also without a idea of his leading range in limped pots. so calling is going to be better since you do have some showdown value in case hes bluffing
