Definately raise more than $2 there. There is a very good chance you are ahead, and since it doesn't seem like you are gonna dump your hand to that kind of flop, put in a real raise and find out if you are beat. If he comes back over the top of you, it's an easy fold. However, since he is all but guaranteed to call a min raise and you are out of position, I like raising bigger with the intentions of either taking it down right there or shutting it down afterwards.

The opponents flop bet was ok (shouldve been a bit more). When he got raised he shouldve folded. He got lucky and will keep playing that way because of it. He had nothing, not even a draw. Theres no way he could reasoanbly assume he was ahead. He had no odds to draw to 2 outs. He is horrible and will lose alot of money playing that way.
Hands like this used to really tick me off, but without opponents like this, there would be no money to be made.

Thanks for the good response. I shouldn't have reraised on the river. I should have just called and I wouldn't had lost $30. I have learned to keep my cool. I wasn't even that mad after this hand. Well thanks again.
