Villain here is 61/50 in 18 hands.

He donks small on a dry board, and I raise. Is there a case for calling here and let him continue betting? He could be block-betting too, so don't want to give him cheap draws, but I can't help thinking he's always b/f here and will only continue with hands that beat us.

Hey Philhellmutt,

I would generally still go for a raise here on the flop. I think it's very unlikely villain is bet/folding with 100% frequency.

Calling would still be +EV of course. However I think raising is best; if we feel villain is very weak we can just reduce the size of our value-raise to encourage calls.
