3-3/A-Qs 600NL

The 600NL tables were looking super soft this morning so i sat down at a couple tables.

1). Villain is a 40/12 and aggressive. Besides calling down pretty light he seems to be playing okay. I ran a bluff against him earlier and he called me down. The first hand is the bluff.

Here is the hand im wondering about: Do you like a small turn lead (~200) or a small overbet shove better? It took place about a half hour after the first hand.

2). Villain is sitting at multiple 600NL tables. He recently stacked off on another table, but the hand was very standard. I have not gotten involved in any big pots since he sat down and i've never played with him before at a lower limit. I figured he would be betting a hand like 7-7 on the river. How is the river bet size? Is a check/shove better?

Hand 1:
Do you know anything about his 3-bet range?
If you think he'll look you up lighter by overbetting (will he call with KK?), than I think that's your best option. Otherwise I like leading small more.

Hand 2:
Do you check both turn and river here with a big pair or J?
I think you have to give up river tbh. C/r is definatly better than leading, but I don't know if and how much he'll fold 77-TT. I don't know about c/shove, not sure if he folds more for it.


(Btw hand 0 your read was villain calls down light. With all draws missing I don't think it's a good idea to triple barrel)

Hand 1: I like the sizing, I think I could go either way on it. Versus some players I'd raise smaller on the flop and bet turn and river, some i'd raise medium and check the turn.

Hand 2: If you had 99 I think this is super sick. Idk it's really hard to tell if this is good, it depends a lot on your image. I think its decent.
