What do you think? Should I have folded on the turn after the check raise? Now when I am looking at the hand I don't see many hands that he may have and I am beating.

You had me @ "Hello!"

OP, you can aggressively bet larger with your bigger hands @ 2nl and also aggressively fold to raises/check-raises as your population will significantly underbluff.

Go bigger on the flop
Just fold turn (just note that this is *extremely* exploitative)

Enjoy!

I bet about half the pot on the flop because i thought I had the best hand and wanted to extract some value. Or maybe I should bet more and be happy if he folds?

BTW
How do you convert a single hand? I don't use poker tracker or hm.

Depends how rigorous you are with defining GTO, i.e. is this exploitative if we're plugging in a range for BB at 2nl or if the range you're assigning to BB is theoretically solid?

If it's the latter this hand borderline and probably calls/folds mixed, especially after the Hero and the villain's turn sizings.

But yes fold the turn.

Flop sizing's not bad IMO, but against a 2NL open limper we can just exploitatively go larger when we have a value hand and b/f more often OTT and OTR. I'm snap folding turn. I assume we should likely call turn in theory, but it's a fish at 2NL so...

Could also iso slightly larger PF too under the same logic. I don't think that a fish's limp/calling range gets more elastic if you raise to 4BB or 4.5BB or 5BB.
