Why dont I either raise or fold.

BB in the hand is 27/5/.7 over 59 hands.

Other than the PT numbers my read on him is that he likes to call. Hasnt been aggressive in any hand he has played as of yet. He has donked the PF raiser a few times before this and if he hit the board and got raised he called down but if he hadnt hit he would fold to the raise.

On the hand when he donked me I had a few thoughts go through my head. I could raise and if he had a 5 he would call down, if he had nothing he would fold and I would get no more action, and if he had a 6 he would most likely call and C/R the turn or something along those lines.

I decided to call the flop bet and raise almost every turn card..except a 5. When the 5 hit I just went into call down mode.

Does anyone fold the turn/raise the turn? Fold the river when the flush hits? I know I played this hand much too passive but at the sametime im not quite sure where to put the raise or fold in given my read.

Raise the flop, there are a couple draws that i dont want to give cheap turn cards too, plus too many cards that could make u freeze up on the turn. I just play ABC poker here.

Im not folding this hand and im prob not raising the turn as i cant fold to a 3bet but u will be ahead here almost always, so why not..
