7 folds, SB raises to $1, Hero calls $0.75

Turn: ($4.50) K (2 players)

Villain is 32/32/inf over 20 hands. So perhaps I could have folded preflop here, but is there anything I could've done differently postflop?

Eh on the turn I probably would have just checked. Middle pair doesn't really make me feel like building the pot. I think he read exactly what you had and knew you couldn't call a big bet with a pair of tens. I'd rather check the turn and call a normal sized bet on the river.

I agree. Check the turn for pot control, and call a reasonable river bet to catch bluffs.

i don't like calling here preflop OOP. 3b/fold pre.

As played check turn and c/c river.

I like the turn bet. You're line doesn't look too weak, and villain doesn't bluff here very often. I think he just a hand here and you made a good fold.

We're IP here, but 3 betting has some merit for sure. If we knew the villain liked to steal I def. like 3 betting. Tough hand because if we hit our A and get action we could be dominated pretty easily.

As played, chking the turn is good for pot control and because Kx is definitely in the villain's range.

I don't think you should be folding PF in position to someone with the stats you mentioned. A 3-bet would be more called fore. Calling seems fine, too. As played I definitely raise the flop. Your pair is vulnerable to a lot of overcards. Turn looks good.

Check the turn. Pot control etc. and it's a bad card for you to bet aswell if you want to get value from any weaker hands on the river.
