$25 NL HE Full Ring: Did I play this hand like a timid fish?

Note to c9h13no3: I give you permission this once to call me a fish if it is deemed acceptable

No stats on villain

BTN: $25 (100 bb)
SB: $26.39 (105.6 bb)
BB: $24.27 (97.1 bb)
MP1: $23.57 (94.3 bb)
Hero (MP2): $30.53 (122.1 bb)
MP3: $19.97 (79.9 bb)
CO: $63.13 (252.5 bb)

Pre-Flop: Hero is MP2 with A

A

MP1 calls $0.25, Hero raises to $1.25, 5 folds, MP1 calls $1

So far so good, I believe

Flop: ($2.85) J

9

(2 players)
MP1 bets $1.50, Hero raises to $3, MP1 calls $1.50

Turn: ($8.85) 9

(2 players)
MP1 bets $2, Hero calls $2

Hes playing it timid so he may be drawing or caught a random piece of this flop

River: ($12.85) T

(2 players)
MP1 bets $1.50, Hero calls $1.50

I have to call this mini bet here.

Results: $15.85 pot ($0.79 rake)
Final Board: J

Looking back I feel I should have had different bet sizing on the flop and turn but I felt like pot control on this type of board was important, given the retarded amounts of ways I could have been beaten.

Thanks!

Do you use a HUD? Stats on villain would be nice here.

What's the deal with the flop min raise?

At larger stakes I'd flat the flop since donk bets on these boards generally mean 2 pair+ or a Pair+OESD which might just go berserk if we raise and we aren''t super comfortable calling if he shoves bc we either a coinflip or a dog.

Here though, people are bad and will donk bet with Tx KJo etc so I raise for value (not min raise) and continue to bomb a brick turn

As played it looks like a bad players way of playing Tx (oooh I can draw cheap if i bet tiny,followed by oooh I hit my ten maybe I can showdown for super cheap and win!!!!!) although I suppose 9x and straights are in his range also. For the 1.50 I'd call

Hi, I do usually but i was only playing for ten minutes and too lazy to turn it on...

Flpo min raise = very dangerous board and not too sure what to do in this situation
