Obviously this hand makes me look like alittle retarded but it didn't quite work out like I planned it OTF.
Preflop I'm calling as he was playing 40/10. I wanted to keep his range open and not isolate me vs the nuts, which I believe a 3bet here efficiently would. Once the flop comes obviously we're golden and he bets really small. I thought about reraising for value, which I think I should have now that I know how the hand progressed. The reason I didn't was because I was seated IP vs a fish and wanted to extract maximum value, and a reraise on this dry board would look like the nuts. However I still believe I should have reraised as he'd still call with any A he'd raised UTG and that would pretty much be the only hands I'd get value from anyway.
OTT: He bets really small again, but now the board has paired so if I reraise I'm repping a set which I don't have, which would isolate me against his setbeating-range, wouldnt it? Obviously it's horrible value just getting 60 into this 490 pot.
OTR: Here I find myself rather frustrated and looking for some value, which wasn't very smart. I'm now efficiently turning my hand into a bluff by repping a full house/flush and I'd only get called by a set of 6s, fullhouse or a flush.
Question: I should have reraised the flop, right?
