Villain was varying limping/raising, his riverraise seems strong to me.
Should we fold here?
Should I bet turn bigger?

I'm probably folding here even tho we're getting good odds to call, his preflop action is consistent with 5x, or some smaller suited connectors, not sure about the turn bet, seems like most hands calling the flop are going to call that turn, just try to get to a cheap showdown imo by checking down

Bet more until you think his range is weaker than your hand. Dont try to balance at these stakes unless u really have a reason to think you r playing someone decent.
