I am raising as much as possible after the flop. Litterally every given chance.
We want to get the pot built up as much as possible, and i dont think at this stakes that anyone is going to be folding any time soon after raising you on the flop. Keep pumping money in until there is no more to put in :p

I read this type of thing a lot and to be honest disagree. If we were talking about a live game at 50p/£1 or less I would say you are likely to be right however the standard online is much higher. He could easily raise the flop then regcognise the great strength we seem to display by calling then leading the turn into a raise. He may well be good enough to fold a Kd type hand here. Zoom is a bit spewy I grant you but I still think you have to give the modern day Pokerstars micro limit games more credit than this. It used to be true but it is not any more.
The second part of your comment about continuing to pump the pot I agree with though. I would be doing it on the flop though, think Grants bet is fine on the turn, it keeps draws interested. I would not mind a bigger bet either.

Stu with $4.25 in pot, I bet 1.80 which he called above. How much would you have bet?

$3, but then i tend to bet bigger, live or online, than most do. I dont mind 1.80, like i say, i just want to get more money in the pot. If he is going to re raise you, then you will be looking at prob around the 6-7 $ mark i would have thought, which i like the sound of more than 4 :p
Like i say, i want as much money in this pot as possible, as early as possible.
But im a **** cash player, as i have no doubt just highlighted.

as played Grant - [i still prefer 3bet flop :)]
Flop
we bet then call a re-raise so villains range is going to be mostly strong-weak on the turn. [the weak part maybe hands he was waiting to see a safe turn card with, a hand that he can bluff catch with but will/met fold to more action]. i assume that he would re-raise his strong made hands on the flop plus weak/bluffs.
Turn
i would personally prefer to get value from the range of villains hands that he was looking to get a safe turn card with, this would be much better than trying to get calls from the weak bluff catchers in his range that you might convince to call again... bet more on the turn as played......
