Here I either could c/f or c/c a street and evaluate turn, but I decided to get a little fancy and experiment. Here I have pair+flush draw, meaning 14 clean outs if the villain has top pair or lower, so if I hit on further streets, I have the chance to take down a nice pot. This is why I c/r flop: semibluffing. When he called, I was pretty sure that it's very likely he has a pair (sets or overpairs would likely have shoved). The turn gives me a gutshot to go with my draw, so I bet again. His min-raise allowed me to play my draw, because he gave me 21% pot odds which is good enough here because only the 14 outs from the flop give me 28% or so chances. The river is an easy fold, having missed everything

The villain is a 23/20 reg, from 901 hands, 41% RFI from button, 74% cbet, 75% cbet IP

Any ideas? thoughts? opinions? rotten tomatoes to throw at me?

Looks good to me. When you call his raise OTT we have to assume that all of our outs are alive, but are they? Do we have enough equity to shove to villains raise OTT?

X t (there's no many hands you could fold of those calling on the flop)

You can 3bet preflop.
I do not like to xr flop. Prefer xc.
As played, x turn too.

I prefer 3bet preflop. After calling our x/r and raising us ott I prefer folding. It is not certain we have the 9 out for flush, and even with 9 outs the call is border.

I like the c/r on the flop, and barrel the turn, but I would fold to the turn raise, he could have pairs and flush draws which means we are drawing dead, two pairs, even TP some of the time at 2nl, that has decided to take it easy on the flop and then put you in on the turn, he might find a fold if we c/c turn and shove river if we hit a flush also - so we aren't assured of our implied odds either. So I would c/r flop, barrel turn, fold to the turn 3bet.

I do not like turning this hand into a bluff.

He has all combos of KJ. Since he just calls the flop x/r I assume he would continue to play his FDs passively.

On this flop actually we do not have many strong hands - TT, 66, J♥:9♥:, A♥:J♥:, K♥:J♥:.
And I do not see many good bluffs. So, imo, this hand may go into x/c range, where we have a lot of TP type of hands.

yeah of course. i just mentioned this because op didn't even seem to consider that a) villain also could be drawing and b) our outs could be dead

I did consider that one too, but IMHO is unlikely. If he's also drawing to the same flush then yes, I am dead in the water, but would he play a draw like this?

Well played, ideal hand for bluffing. You have up to 14 outs in case you are behind, and you are extremely unlikely to take this down on SD-value alone. Raising it up preflop as suggested in several places is pretty much senseless, the only purpose would be to balance you 3-betting range with some shit-hands hoping to steal a few bb.
