Villain's 45 bet on the flop is too small to fold to. Call and gauge on the turn.

Looks like he missed too- I 3x here and see how villian reacts.

And what's your plan if he re-rerases back? What's your move on the turn if he calls?

Fold/check-fold.

If he shows any strength in this hand, you want to go away as fast as you can.

Thats what I normally do and they fold very often. The minibet at the lower limits is some perverse form of blocking bet with no attention paid to the board most of the time.

i would read that small bet as a blocking bet for his flush draw.

raising to 150 in a 500 pot gives him the odds to draw though.

raise to 300.

Raise to 300 and leave yourself w/ 275???
May as well push if this is the case. Raise to 150 to get more information without necessarily commiting yourself. Alot of players will fold on this level without an ace (even though they have pot odds and drawing odds).

I agree completely with this. Some bad players at the 20's will stop firing shots after the flop and then it's your time to fire back.

Plus you have more than just 3 kings that can win you this pot. Don't discount the possibility of getting another club to give you more outs by the river if your opponent is going to bet out such small amounts.
