Around 20 minutes into the session, villain(BB) is running at 19.2/11.7/1.6. I'm at 24.8/19.8/2.1. I haven't shown down any bluffs or anything. The board looks drawy, but I don't think he's aggressive enough to c/r here w/ too many draws. He definitely seems solid. This is like my 2nd session ever, so I haven't really been in too many of these spots.

Ugh that's a tough one. He's not that passive and you've been running loose enough that he might perceive you as a lag. At NL10 I dont like folding this, sometimes you'll go broke but more often you will beat a good Q. I RR to 6 and call a shove.

The problem with folding is that this could reasonably be a Q. People love to play back in 10NL from the blinds after a blind steal, with Top Pair.

I 3-bet this, the question is how much do we 3-bet it? We at least want to put it at $3 more (so $5 total). The trick is that the money is going in on the Turn then (either he'll donk in his last ~$5 or we will bet it for value) - so maybe a shove is the better move to take it down now/crush odds for any draw - the problem with the All-In is that we get called by a set/2 pair and we probably fold out a Queen.

I notch it up to $5.

I am not folding here, I will re raise and call a shove

Ok; I appreciate the feedback so far. I was basing my judgment of villain's passiveness on my observation and that this was the first time I'd seen him c/r in 20 minutes or so; it wasn't his aggression factor in particular.

Would it be bad if I just called here against a passive villain? If so, why. What about vs. a more aggressive villain.

There's no way I'd fold here. To him, it looks like you made a raise to steal pf and now he's putting you to the test on the flop, basically saying "I'm pretty sure you're stealing and I want to take it down now". He could seriously have anything here, not just a queen/set/2pair, though I definitely think a queen is most likely. He could also have a small-mid pocket pair and think he's ahead right now.

I'd raise it up to $6 and call a shove.

And then put your money in on the turn. I don't give him credit for a 2pair on this uncoordinated board. If he hit his set you loosing all your money anyway.

Edit: I mean if he just calls your rr.
