    Default Totally routine hand - what would you do?

    villain was loose/passive with aggression frequency on flop of like 11% over a small sample.

    Microbet usually means either
    a)FD, probably not A high
    b)Weak K
    c)total air
    in about 33/33/33%, and then throw in the odd "LOLZ I HAVE NUT HAND I MICROBET" but that's pretty rare.

    On flop and turn I figure I'm miles ahead of his range but won't get much value from a raise (I'll likely take it down, but oh well)

    On river he takes this line with b)100% of the time, and also with a) and c) a lot, especially if the J hit him (reasonable, Loose Passives love J's).

    Maybe I should call river? I'm thinking raise turn is good.

    PokerStars Pot-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (6 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    UTG ($102.50)
    MP ($104.50)
    Hero ($124.30)
    Button ($98.50)

    Preflop: Hero is CO with 9, A.
    2 folds, Hero raises to $3, 2 folds, BB calls $2.

    Flop: ($6.50) K, 2, 2 (2 players)
    BB bets $1, Hero calls $1.

    Turn: ($8.50) 4 (2 players)
    BB bets $1, Hero calls $1.

    River: ($10.50) J (2 players)
    BB bets $6, Hero folds.

    Final Pot: $10.50

    dont call or raise his river bet cuz he had you beat most of the time. Normally, I dont play fancy stuff against these loose stations but occasionally throw in a huge flop raise and see what happen to their reaction. As played, i fold A9 and call down his tiny $1 bet with AK/AQ.

    I treat those bets like checks and add a buck to the normal CBet amount.

    I would raise the flop, then be done with the hand. Based on what he does, I then would adjust future against against him.
