Yep. But I forgot to mention that I dont like the turn bet.
My betting sequence would be either 4/8/0 or 4/8/15-fold, something like that. No reason to pot the turn, which isn't a great card for us. But I get your point, IF he's drawing, making it expensive is good. My main problem is, I never really know what hands call pot-sized bets. Normally only stronger hands would be able to call. But if some donk is drawing, you get confused on the turn. And what's your play against a raise? I usually use pot-sized bets to take down the pot immediately with weakish or no hands. Ie I'll fold to any resistance immediately, which is easy if I have little in the first place. But two pair is quite strong, not easy to lay this down on the flop. By betting less there's a higher chance a raise means AK or similar.
