Reads and thought...

Villian was 32 23 4.5 over 97 hands. He hadnt gotten out of line with me up untill this point but was a decent player for nl25 was pretty aggressive.

I have been playin 25 16 4 and assume villian is decent enough to have a decent read on me and how i have been playing.

*QUESTION 1*
So iraise prelop and get reraised from the button. My first question is how tight is his ranger here? my range is decently wide here but i think i have a wider than average reraise ranges for 25nl. does 99+ AQ+ and maybe a suited connecter or two seem to wide?

*QUESTION 2*
So i call and then decide to play an extremely passive line here. I check and let him cbet and then decide on the turn where to go. Is this an ok line or should i be looking lead the flop here and then fold to a reraise or give up if called?

*QUESTION 3*
So i check the turn to try and not bloat the pot in such an akward spot. Villian checks behind which was sort of suprising. The river is another blank and i check again. Now villin pots it. Do i now need to call because i have shown so little strength that it has given him the green light to pot hands like AQ+ and all pocket pairs?

The check is to give him an opportunity to try to bet with AK/AQ again. You bet, he folds these (likely) hands. You check, he may bluff at the pot.

I just don't know how many decent LAGs check behind this turn with an overpair. I just don't feel that is very likely, so I definitely call the river.

For all those who are calling, I'm assuming you are calling a4, 33, etc also.

if you're willing to felt your hand, this is the best way to do it.

if not where do i let it go? because if im calling preflop this is almost the best flop i can shoot for???i dont see where i should let this go? if he fired the turn i thinki have a chance to let it go. but as the hand played out i dont see where i should b folding here.

There's no way villain checks an overpair on the turn with straight and diamond draws out the wazoo. This is either a busted flush draw or a busted overcard draw. I check and call every time since betting the river would only make him fold, but you can pick off a bluff here.
