What line do you take?

The SB can be tricky but really seems to play poorly postflop with misplaced aggression and has called down with some weak hands. Twice now he has smoothcalled on the flop then checkraised the turn with mid pair.

If I 3bet the turn and he caps do you fold there? or call then call the river?

I'm rethinking it. At 2/4 most turn cr are the real thing. I think I like calling the cr and calling the river. I like 3-betting the turn better than raising the river. I don't really like raising the river though.

Why is 3-betting turn so superior to this line?

I find that at 2/4 most c/r are legit. Call down.

It's not just the same old passive 2/4 opponent though.

Well suppose that he was semibluffing. Doesn't the third club mean that he could have gotten there? Lots of straights too. I think a semi-passive line when c/red on turn is warranted. I would bet if checked to , but call river if bet into.

A semibluff draw will call. A semibluff draw won't always lead the river, (Although he did). It also might make the river easier to play. If a bad scare card comes you can check behind.
