    Default 50nl: What does this min raise mean?

    Read:
    58 hands and villain is running 100/8/2.2

    How should we proceed on the turn? I am often faced with these min raises from fish and I am never sure if this is the nuts, pot control or air. What should I do here?
    $0.25/$0.5 No Limit Holdem
    9 Players


    Stacks:
    UTG ($46.95)
    Hero ($50.90)
    MP1 ($50)
    MP2 ($17.05)
    MP3 ($25)
    CO ($11.10)
    BTN ($10)
    SB ($11.05)
    BB ($44.75)

    Pre-Flop: ($0.75, 9 players) Hero is UTG+1
    1 fold, Hero raises to $2, 6 folds, BB calls $1.50

    Flop: ($4.25, 2 players)
    BB checks, Hero bets $3, BB calls $3

    Turn: ($10.25, 2 players)
    BB checks, Hero bets $7, BB raises to $14, $7 to Hero ($38.9)?

    soaking up ethanol, moving on up
    meh, the spot is gross.
    Bet flop bigger (although i bet $3 here too, but i think that it's a leak).

    Turn, think about hands that he's likely to have. Calling is ok, but be prepared to fold to a decent river bet. Jamming is just silly. Folding seems too nitty, but may in fact be the best play against more often trips than a weaker queen.

    turn minraise from fish often means business. I probably call ip and reevaluate on the river.

    just call/call pretty much any river. He has a 7 a fair amount but also air, weaker queens and maybe some draws.
