Default Can you say Tilt?

Awful play on my part towards the end. Just want to see what you guys would do here. Villian is a known chaser, at least in the 150 hands I've seen him in...6 max.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ Hero (6 max, 6 handed) converter

CO ($42.56)
Button ($101.62)
SB ($70.7)
Hero ($27.75)
UTG ($37.9)
MP ($24.88)

Preflop: Hero is BB with T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.25.
UTG calls $0.50, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, SB (poster) completes, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $2.5</font>, UTG folds, SB calls $2.50.

Flop: ($6.50) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $4</font>, SB calls $4.

Turn: ($14.50) A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets $3</font>, Hero calls $3.

River: ($20.50) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets $6</font>, Hero calls $6.

Final Pot: $32.50


For some reason I was thinking (he's sucked out on me a few times so all I can think about is stomping him, which obviously throws off my thought process), okay he's chasing again. He bets on the turn representing an ace. I call the $3 into a $13 pot. River another ace, okay, no less of a chance he's got one. He bets $6 into a $13 pot...blocking bet on his busted flush draw? I call it. Whether I won or lost was irrelevant, where would you guys play it different? Reraise the turn to find out where I stand? Fold to the $3 bet (don't think I can because it's only 22% of the pot), fold on the river? Help. What would you have put him on? He's a 58% VPIP.

Just to give you an idea, here's another hand from the same table, same villian.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (6 max, 6 handed) converter

BB ($54.58)
UTG ($100.65)
MP ($33.73)
Hero ($36.05)
Button ($17.75)
SB ($18.25)

Preflop: Hero is CO with T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.25.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP calls $0.50, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $2</font>, Button calls $2, SB (poster) calls $1.75, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP calls $1.50.

Flop: ($8.50) Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, MP checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $5</font>, Button folds, SB folds, MP calls $5.

Turn: ($18.50) 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
MP checks, Hero checks.

River: ($18.50) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
MP checks, Hero checks.

Final Pot: $18.50

Question: Is this too many people to continuation bet into with absolutely nothing but a perfect/perfect straight draw?

If you thought he had a flush draw on the turn you should have raised him. As it was, you gave him over 5:1 on his bet.

Edit: However, an ace-high flush draw may have just caught something. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

In this second hand, I don't mind the continuation bet, but I shut down UI just as you did.

This isn't perfect perfect, it's runner runner, just to be a nit.
