  2. Why would you post this in PD?
     
  3. He probably figures on turn he has fold equity plus a pair, plus oesd, so even if you have a huge hand, he can call with odds. Plus, your first 3 moves look weak: call min. raise pf, check\ call flop, check turn... he is trying to get you off the hand, and I don't blame him. He is obv. pot committed on turn bet, but he is too strong for you to play sooooo passively before then. I'm not saying his play is spectacular, but it is not horrible, and it is understandable given what he sees from you. I hate river suck outs too, but you have to figure he has a hand and is trying to protect it, even with a semi-bluff.
