Default Make fun of me

This table had been incredibly passive which leads to me making these kinda crazy raises in late position. I get a lot of fold equity on flop plus usually buy button for free cards if I like(comments please). Anyhow, the reraise preflop is a slight wrinkle, but it is a minraise, which makes me want to punish this guy for not shutting me out. The stupid minraise lays me good enough odds to call even if I know he has AA, correct?

I think I would change my play in spots but will comment later if I get reponses.

He would be totally legit to play AK like that, especially AhKh. The flop bet looked like a standard continuation bet, he caught high pair on the turn and still could have a flush draw, and your aggressive bet on the river could well have been a bluff, since from his perspective, it was unlikely you were playing for the club flush.

P.S. i hope you apologized for this one, i'd have been quite upset if i was that guy and you turned over T7c

What situations would make it good to bet 4bucks into 22 pot. I could think if he was trying to induce a raise, but then I would expect hime to go all-in not just smoothcall.

Thats true, 4 into 22 is a rather strange bet. I can't think of many occasions to make that bet, except to encourage action with a safe made hand, which clearly he didnt have here.
