i dont mind going for thinish value on turn and river. Checkings fine too

as played ez call w/ AJ. Even if he doesnt value bet worse ever (he may) if you're folding here you're folding pretty much every hand except KQ getting 3:1...

Bet turn? i'd say yes, why check? what you fear?, about river don't like fold, we have some showdown value, so this is call on river.

Villain might think hero has some Qx or 9x and does not have very strong hand so uses some small pocket pairs (if he 3bets these), some 910s to bluff again on the river. He might also be thin value betting weak aces like A5s. There are hands we fear, but I would still call here.

Everything looks ok, except when people bet that weak on the flop, they tend to be either be super weak or on draws. Every so often they are ubber strong, but typically it's one of the two previous ranges, so I actually like raising for value and you can check the turn if they do call. But I'm not a fan of just letting someone set the price they want.

As played, call the river. Pretty easy call here for the price you're getting.

Definitely betting turn most of the time. Checking back for balance is ok once in a while but dont make it a habit

Raise villains post flop bet , check the turn if called. As played gives you no information on the strength of your hand and put you in the spot on the river bet. Price is right for a call and showdown.

The flop bet looks pretty weak, so I would bet the turn when he checks. It looks like we're ahead, but don't want to give the villain a free card. The river is a call in my opinion for that price.

The flop bet is so small I don't understand it. The players 3b percentage is so low, I think he has a strong preflop at least. No idea why he would be giving up so much value on any street if he has Top pair or better. On the turn it seems you're willing to check it down, so if he had TT or JJ , I just don't see him trying to bluff you off your hand especially not with such a weak line. I don't think he ever has TJ here preflop, but if he does he continues to barrel on the turn.

I may be reading this all wrong but it seems like he has a second pair type hand KK or KQ and was done with the hand on the turn. Now he is betting small thinking you won't call very much more.

Looking back at it now, I don't really know what I was thinking. Somehow I totally misplayed that hand. Thank you all!
