Two more 50nl hands from today

Hand 1
Villain is TAGGish over very small sample

No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (6 handed) - Hold'em Manager Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

MP ($168.91)
Hero (CO) ($86.13)
Button ($49.25)
SB ($10.25)
BB ($65.12)
UTG ($37.42)

Preflop: Hero is CO with Jhttp://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...miles/club.gif, Ahttp://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...iles/spade.gif
2 folds, Hero bets $1.75, 2 folds, BB calls $1.25

Flop: ($3.75) 9http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...iles/spade.gif, Ahttp://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...miles/club.gif, 7http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...iles/spade.gif (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $3, BB raises $6, Hero raises $18.75, BB raises $31.50, Hero raises $62.63 (All-In), BB calls $25.87 (All-In)

Normally when someone raises me on a wet board I just flat it then bet turn if no draw comes in. Because he only minraised me I chose to 3-bet flop, but once he min-raise 4-bets I think I should let it go?

Hows PF? Normally to a min-raise in the blinds I'll call anything with some implied odds, is that ok? Tempted to just donk flop, thoughts? With less than a PSB does the paired board change my commitment plan? I figured he still has enough trips and overpairs (2P now) to warrent getting it in?

1. mega spew without reads. just call the minraise and see what happens on turn
2. i like preflop and your flop c/r. just jam or pot commit with your turn lead though cause it looks a little weaker than the bet you made given flop action and board texture

Should I change my flop c/r size to affect turn? Or is a psb shove on turn good enough? Is there any point betting 15-20, do you think that makes any difference to their call/shove range?

1. If he has AT and he decided for some unknown reason check/raise, does he stack off here? Probably not. Now what if he has 77? Definitely will. So you're basically putting in money when behind. A flush draw is a part of his range, but he has 35% equity when he has a non-nut flush draw he wants to play for stacks, and he has like 88% equity if he has you beat without a set, and like 96% equity when he has a set. (all numbers pulled out of my ass but you get the point)

in hand 2, doesn't that look like a good spot to squeeze? I don't know, I don't squeeze almost ever so I don't really know the good spots to do it in, but you're second to act on the flop, 2.75 is already in the pot, if you pop it up to 5 bucks, CO and SB snap fold

although, meh button is probably a donk and we're just going to be heads up with him on the flop being OOP so forget everything I said
I like the post-flop
