IM playing on crypto .5/1 NL with about 150 in chips, the villian has about 100
Im on the button with 6 limpers and make it 6 to go, only the villian calls
Flop QQ2 rainbow and its checked to me, I bet the pot and he doubles my bet, I call.
Turn 7
He bets 52 leaving him with less than 20 dollars...
I will post the results later, but this was my first orbit with this player. How would you play the flop and turn?

Fold after you get minraised on the flop, IMHO.

Your pot sized bet on the flop is fine however I would probably fold to the reraise. And once he fires that bet on the turn this is an easy lay down in my opinion.

fold to the minraise, you're in a bad spot.

I folded the turn villian showed a bluff of 7 5 or 7 3 offsuit
I know have data on him and in his 300 plus hands his VPIP is almost 70
When you bet that flop basically the only result you're happy with is if your opponent folds. So unless your opponent is relatively weak-tight and will fold every time without top pair or a good draw, I wouldn't always bet the flop. Tricky/thinking players will blow you off your hand too often on that type of flop, and if I'm going to be calling down their bluffs I'd rather do it in a small pot than a big one.
One line I like to use is to check the flop, raise the turn, and then check behind on the river. (This looks like a huge slowplay, so if you get reraised on the turn or face a big river bet you're almost certainly beaten and can then fold safely.) Against the biggest bluffers/maniacs I may just call the turn and then call again on the river. Just don't get carried away though... this is only good against players aggressive enough to auto-bet the turn following your flop check.

Ok lets say the turn is a king or ace- this guy called a raise ( I don't know he has rags) then how would you play the turn?
It's hard to answer that without a read on my opponent. I may still do the same thing.
