2 Orbit, nothing unusual soo far. His weak lead on flop and turn puts him on flush draw. Do I bet the river or will he call with Ax spades. Who folds the turn?

Sometimes a weak lead can also be a monster if a villain knows you will raise a decent hand if they show weakness.

I dont think you have any fold equity here.

I think it's rare at this level to see someone with just a flush draw lead on the turn after getting their flop lead raised. They will almost always check/call at that point. The first hand that jumps out at me given this action is A6 that's now worried you have AK/AJ or X[s] - both of which are going to call a river bet with the pot as large as it is.

I don't see any point in betting here - I just don't see him looking you up with a hand you beat, even given the size of the pot.

You can raise a little less on the flop, but fold turn 100%

This is $50NL. Make money by value betting thinner, instead of trying to make weak opponents fold their pairs.
