Smallpot vs. nit

I'm learning to think in ranges and shit so I just want to check this. FWIW I bet with the intention of betting turn if he called.

Villain (ajrenni) was 0/0/0 over 28 hands.

Easy flop bet against opponents who aren't going to check/raise you very often (ABC TAggs who bet 99% of their good stuff for value.) Although when I'm not continuation betting, I usually bet closer to the size of the pot because I'm repping a stronger range.

Firing again on the turn might be a bit too spewy. Since we have showdown value and a couple outs to suck-out against Ax I would just shut it down and usually fold (sometimes call) a river bet.

this is fine. dont fire a second barrel though.

I like a second barrel if we had less showdown value though.
