Readless on villain. Not been involved too much so i put him as a reasonably 'solid' player for NL4.

Firstly, should i be c-betting this flop? It is a bit drawy. He's calling any J, any small straight draw with a raggy ace, and any flush draw. Does that make it a check or should i always c-bet after raising pre flop?

Secondly, what do i do now? If he was drawing it lookslike he has now hit.

    cbet bigger, i'd flat the turn and re-evaluate on the river, i'd be vbetting on most non-club rivers if he checks.

    what does that cbet even mean? you and the other 4NL players always say bet big when you get a big hand, so it's obv your bluffing when you bet around half pot, keep your sizings the same
    call and fold to most bets on river - v.bet if checked to you

    A high percentage dont figure that out. Also, never played this villain before so he wont know any patterns. Saying that, it defo should be bigger. 3/4 pot at least. Looks weak.

    I decided to call and re evaluate the river. What now? Easy fold?

    Raise pre was fine
    3/4 pot would be better cbet

    Pre looks good

    Flop I actually cbet smaller lolz, 35p gets same answser, DO NOT cbet bigger people DO NOT think at this level, half pot means same as 3/4 pot. 

    Turn snap fold for me.

    This, if a player has missed the flop and is going to fold they will fold to 1/2 pot just as often as 3/4 and it makes it cheaper for you to see where you are

    i actually like the cbet size, its quite a dry board no need to bet massive imo also smaller with bluffs bigger for value works fine

    but considering he'd bet big if he hit, isnt the sizing bad? if the opponents had any sense they'd know
