    Default Frequently lost in these spots

    Villian is relatively unknown, he´s been randomly limp/calling from any position. I´m really lost, raising inflates the pot when I´m not happy to stack off, calling leaves me oop with him having 12 million turn cards to represent.

    $0.50/$1 No Limit Holdem
    4 players
    Converted at weaktight.com

    Stacks:
    CO ($99.55)
    BTN ($47.25)
    Hero ($154.75)
    BB ($92.05)

    Hero is SB with :Ks: :Jh:

    Pre-flop: ($1.50, 4 players)
    2 folds, Hero bets $3, BB calls $2.50

    Flop: ($7, 2 players)
    Hero bets $4, BB bets $8

    There's not much wrong with folding against an unknown and seemingly passive villain.

    there's plenty wrong with folding TPGK to a weak villain on a super draw heavy board.

    this for sure, but im sorta lost on a plan for the turn. I think im folding to any bet thats not completely retarded on a scare(ish) card. i'll call a decent turn bet on a total blank.

    getting my swell on
    3-betting is bad and folding is bad so merely by process of elimination call.

    call and see what happens. so many things could happen we can't/dont really need to express a plan at this point.
    My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

    well standard would be to c/f but if villain doesnt suck its a pretty good time to bomb turn bomb river as a bluff. unfortunately it seems like villain is awful.

    how bad is check/call, check/fold? This is the suggestion from my roommate and he doesn't believe me that it's probably the worst option.
