I can't see this player folding AQ or AJ against a small raise. If you make a larger raise you will be paying off a lot of his range, TT, 33, AT, A3. Of course, they could hold KQ or KJ, QJ and the small bet represents a busted draw, they would most likely fold these hands.

Seems well played to me. it will be tough to get to much value with a raise on 1 point and you block the nut flush. You don't want to face a 3bet post-flop I think.

Well, if you put him on a weak top pair most of the time, the spot to get value is the turn where there are still draws and some of his top pairs now have second or third flush draw. His line is so weak that it should be an easy raise for value on the turn. It would be hard for him to bet/bet/bet and call when another spade hits the river and probably he is not calling weaker top pairs either. Those bets are "designed" to get minimal value and are almost never strong hands that can call a raise on the river.

I am raising this flop. We are giving great odds to draw and weird two pair hands to happen vs us on turn and river.
