If your read is that villian likes to raise flop bets as a semibluff to buy a free card, then I think you HAVE to raise it up more on the flop. The way you played it, he had perfect odds to draw to whatever he was drawing to, not to mention implied odds. You mentioned that you raised so little because you wanted to get reraised. Do you really think a flush draw puts in a 3rd raise here?!?! I would pop it up to $15-17 or so. Why overbet the pot on the turn? I would price villain in more, maybe 2/3 pot here to give him bad odds. You really want villian to draw on you here for a 2/3 pot bet. Betting $22 will only scare off draws, and thereflore you lose potential value.
Also, dalecooper, you think that pushing the turn is a good play? You are effectively betting $84 into a $15 pot! IMO the only hand that gives you action is 77, 22, or 45. And if he has 77 or 22, the money is going in the middle anyway. I think 2pair finds an easy fold here unless you have been very laggy and overbetting a lot.
