100NL : hand series versus tough LAG - help!

I didn't need to look at the results to see the same thing villain sees. You're bets are WAY too weak on every street. They're just not convincing. As a result, villain can tell right away that you don't have a hand and will call you down with bottom pair.

You're C/B on the flop should look exactly like the bet you make when you flop TPTK. Personally I always bet 3/4 of the pot, unless there's an obvious draw in a multiway pot, in which case I bet the full pot or even overbet. I play it exactly the same way regardless of whether or not I have a hand.

Apparently you guys don't play with the same calling stations that I do. To me, telling him to make bigger CB's is just telling him to lose more money.

The pot in the first hand was $37 and villian called him down with 66. Is $2 more on the flop and $4 or $5 on the turn going to make villian fold?

Wait until you hit a flop. Make the same bets, let him call you down and lose. Some calling stations simply won't be bluffed until you win one from them.
