3 hands versus a passive opponent 200NL
I had been playing this guy for a while without making any headway. He didn't seem great by any means, pretty passive both preflop and post flop. Most of the pots just involved me raising pre and cbetting a flop and either taking the pot down there or giving up if called. These hands happened in the order I have them posted here.
Notes I made on him include:
c/c flop, pot lead turn with TPGK
tight 3betting range
very passive
Hand 1)
Not much had happened in the game up to this point. I was just pounding on him with pf raises and cbets and he usually just called or folded. Firstly I should have sized my turn bet better so I could shove the river for less then a PSB. Only hands I could put him on when he shoved the river were KQ/89/TJ so I folded. Anyone think this is a call?

Hand 2)
I decided not to cbet the flop here because I don't like to get too mental with my cbetting frequencies. Especially against passive guys who like to call a lot. I know there are better hands to check behind with but whatever. Turn hits my hand and he leads into me. I think my raise was a big mistake here because my pair isn't exactly the best and if he's leading with a draw then he's already priced himself out. Also it turns my hand face up and nullifies my positional advantage more so than a call. Once he shoves I think I should fold because my hand is face up and because he's pretty passive.

Hand 3)
I think the flop raise is fine in this spot. I get value from lots of weaker top pair hands. Same with the turn bet, I don't think he calls my flop raise with 67 so I still have the best hand a lot. I found it very hard to put him on a hand that beats me on the river except for T6s or T7s. I dont feel that AT takes this line for some reason. Hows my reasoning?
