Hoopy is an unknown quantity at this point
 Opponent was new to the table if I remember rightly, hate getting in spots like this. I'm really starting to realize I play too weak tight post flop.

Pre-flop I give him a range of (A5o+, Kxs, 22-TT, Big broadways (QJ,KT etc)

Post flop is it better to call his bet to keep the pot smaller and see what happens on the turn or just raise it up?

Guess I'm scared of the flush here, am I being too weak tight though?

IMO easy fold. you don't have a club. Pick a better spot. Villain likes flop obviously has club if not two.

 I disagree with folding completely. A flush draw is showing up here way more often than a made flush, so is a weaker ace.

I'm unsure about raising>calling though and vice versa. At least call the flop since he can have weaker aces and draws in his range, re-evaluate on the turn I guess. Maybe raise/fold? Be interesting to hear others thoughts on this.

At each higher level, new pleasures and insights await us--ones not even suspected when we started out. We can take this as far as we want--in any human activity there is always a higher level to which we can aspire."

I reraise to about $0.90. If Villain reraises, obviously fold.

I like bet/fold the turn for value as well providing a club doesn't come.

You arent that far ahead of anything with a club in, and you are way behind a made flush/ set. I call and reevaluate the turn. On the turn we can easily fold if a club comes, or we can raise with a lot more equity vs something like A X if it doesnt.

This. I don't really see the value in reraising here as you're going to get called by any draw. Lets see what peels off on the turn.
