If I was playing against a donk that overvalued TP/Horrible kicker, then I'd try to hold his hand and walk him through all sorts of value bets with a decent Ace here.

True -- but since we are "passive", and we raised the turn, the BB has to put us on 2-pair or better, and expects us to call. We can't beat whatever he's holding (probably 66).

There are different types of "passives" though: "calling stations" are also passive, and if that's what we are, then he may might have AK/AQ here -- though if he had that, he probably would have raised pre-flop. I usually think "passive" means we rarely ever raise, but will also fold if our hand isn't great. If that's the case, then BB has to know we are pretty strong here, and not likely to fold.
