				 Bet sizing question--drawing value from monster hands
				
					
						SB is VPIP/PFR: 23/13 over 60 hands, and has  50% fold rate on each street (50% fold to cbet); not a very large sample, so I'm just considering him a normal player.  First--I haven't played in a while, and I'm thinking I need to reevaluate having played this hand at all, but that isn't really my question.
 Given my hand and the flop, how do I size the bet here, as he started at a 49 BB stack, given his stats?
 
 (Note: I'm not expecting much play out of the VPIP/PFR: 8/7 BTN with 65% fold to cbet over 800 hands, and relatively low AFq post flop.)
 
 Really I'm trying to get value out of draws and medium pair, while building the pot. . . I'm just not sure of the sizing.
 
 Merge - $0.04 NL - Holdem - 7 players

 CO: $16.13
 BTN: $1.14
 SB: $1.96
 BB: $4.32
 UTG: $8.24
 Hero (UTG+1): $4.00
 MP: $3.71
 
 SB posts SB $0.02, BB posts BB $0.04
 
 Pre Flop: ($0.06) Hero has  5
  5   
 fold, Hero raises to $0.08, fold, fold, BTN calls $0.08, SB calls $0.06, fold
 
 Flop: ($0.28, 3 players)  Q
  5  J   SB checks, Hero bets ??
 
 I guess in general against a moderate, fairly passive villain, my general question is how do we draw value on boards that might be scary to the hero come turn or river.
