I'm not sure about that here, as he could be raising for a free card on this draw heavy board, and I'm not inclined to give it to him.

That's why I bet the turn...should I have raised the flop instead?

Well, I think you are probably ahead. By just calling the flop raise, you haven't really charged him to see the turn, as he already invested money in the pot. If you think he is drawing and know you are going to bet the turn, I'd say 3 bet the flop AND lead the turn. Charge him the maximum.

I think so. I'm pretty content to try and take this small pot down ASAP especially when I figure to have the best hand.

I like this BUT you have to give serious consideration to KQ or AK here. After all, a solid player is cold-calling with something preflop, right? So if I'm raised on the turn, I think I fold against a tight, not that aggressive sort.

Does someone with an AF of 1 raise for free cards?

Maybe.

Did so with KTo...I caught a J on the river, and he called. New players should play this hand with caution until they get as good as I am at catching 2 pair.
