Villain just sat down, later turned out to be somewhat loose passive.
Questioned after the hand if I should have folded to the turn raise (i.e. most raising hands that he could have beat my low 2 pair with a possibly weak/dead draw to full house, although there is the possibility I'm running into a semi bluff/some other move) Is this an easy fold or would ppl tend to call down? Thanks

To tell you the truth I probably would've reraised although it wouldn't have been best play, it suits my style. You are ahead of AJ, AT, KQ, KJ, and Qhxh all of whom could make this raise. I would probably assume KQ,QhJh, or QhTh figuring that he wouldn't call with a gutshot on the flop without a flush draw. JhTh is also possible, in which case you're probably screwed. Could have been slowplaying AK, AQ, etc., but I would've expected a reraise before the flop. He could even have JJ. So you were unlucky considering the hands I would have put him on actually contained mostly losers. He made a bad call, obviously. Too bad. Played just fine, but I pop him again to make him pay for a lower 2 pair, a flush draw or a straight draw.

You played it just fine. You cannot fold.

The decision on this turn is calling and raising. I think raising is better.
