This is 6 max 10NL on BOL, which is their lowest stakes, so it's really 2NL on another site.
First time playing him, but after about 30 mins with him at the table, villain is pretty aggressive and bets a lot.
I had QdJc on btn. I opened to 30c. Villain calls from BB.
5sQc8h flop. BB immediately throws a half-pot donk bet. I call.
Turn's Ks. Another half-pot bet. I call.
River comes Jh.
He throws out another ~half-pot bet ($1.17 bet into $2.47).
At this point I put him on Q9, QT type of hand. I discounted a flopped set because I think he would have checked the flop. Normally a weak Q probably checks the river, but I've seen this guy bet pretty mediocre hands.
It is possible he was throwing out bets with AT from the start, as I have seen people do that at BOL, but I think it's pretty unlikely. 9T is even more unlikely.
I ended up raising the minimum and he called so I knew my hand was good.
Too cautious? Should I have raised bigger to perhaps 2.50 to $2.75? I didn't think he had a particular good hand that would call a big raise, that's why I kept the raise small.
(Undersizing raises is a leak I am trying to work on.)
