    and your bets are incredibly weak, making it very easy for him to call down

    Well my turn bet is weak...I dunno why i did that....but my flop and river bets are standard aren't they?
    If I bet more on the river it just makes it a lot less profitable in the long-run.

    pf is 4x+1limper (I am in the SB so the total raise = $10...$8 more for villain to call)

    If you know you're going to be OOP you can raise a little more since people feel more inclined to call anyway when they limp. And even if they fold you still pick up 2BB which is probably more that you'll be making on average with the hand anyway. But it's just a preference.

    Anyways, if you're going to three barrel don't do it on this board. He could soso easily be slowplaying a 5, and he's loose and passive so why do you want to threebarrel, i almost never threebarrel non-regs either unless the situation is very very good for it.
