Two hands at $3-$6 - I feel like he's screwing with me.

[Borodog]

Villain in both cases is the same dude. He's 49.4, 12.6, 0.67 over 87 hands. He seemed fairly passive postflop, so I released the first hand to the checkraise. But then just a couple later . . .

Waste of chips on this call down?

EV wise maybe, but for peace of mind that he did happen to hit a couple of decent hands and wasn't playing you, then no.

Hand 2 is full of draws, and even passive opponents can checkraise the turn with a weaker hand. Normally fold against a passive player, but when there seems a fair chance that he's taking a shot at you...go for it.

He's not the only one who is going to notice you folding to 2 turn checkraises in 3 hands.
