400NL: Defending the button vs a 3bet 400NL: Defending the button vs a 3bet

Villain is fairly passive 23/7.

I had raised every button for about the last 3 orbits and had not been played back at. i had the feeling that this was a pretty light 3 bet, especially given the bet size.

How's my line?

Do we v-bet the river?

don't like this a lot..

-4-bet pre
-fold/raise flop
-turnraise makes no sence, he'll call you with everything if u raise this small.
- river is a light valuebet, like 165$

i don't see why you feel his 3 bet is light but seems fine to take a flop with this and see how it develops. I'm assuming you called the flop as a float and bluffed the turn, but after he 2 barreled it seems a little to creative for playing a fish to float and bluff reraise the turn. I'm definitely NOT v-betting the river as only a better hand is calling you here and a bet on the river becomes more of a bluff than anything else possibly folding out ak. That said vs a fish a river bluff is unwise as hell be calling you down with a better 2 pair or a set.
