Hi..
Hand 2 of match against unknown.
I marked this hand off as I wasn’t sure about it, but now reviewing the hand I think my reads were OK.
But could you give me input please ?
Villain limps, I 3bet to 70,
He calls, I put him on 7x + ( Possibly J7, Q2 ? and some mid / low gut shot/connectors )
Flop comes I make second pair ( But with low kicker ) and donk lead over half pot to fix some info about his range.
Villain calls, I suspect he is on a SD now and the turn comes a 6.
I chk and villain bets a 1/4 pot which I think is to induce.
I fold.

Firstly, i think we shouldnot raise limps with such a hands because it dont play well post flop and is low in my opinion. Since we decide to raise limp and flop come 89T very draw heavy 3 option now we bet close to 1/2p and hope he fold, we decide to plan a flop check-raise to see if villains is weaks/strong there if he just flat i usally will take most Tx out of his ranges, more likely he will have 7x-8x-Jx and some draws, we can also check flop to kind of pot control since betting the flop creater a larger pot with a marginal hands (just because we know for sure he have to fold to further aggression all 9x bet us Tx and very draw heavy flop for bunch of draws). Since you take the bet option on the flop i think you should bet a bit smaller like 60 into 140 to give yourself a) room to fold and have a stack b) when same situation occur but with a reals hands try to extract value on each street and setup a nice river bet so villain has to call down. Just to conclude, dont know is your perceive small bet like this as inducing bet but sometimes also it you show weakness.
