Small pocket pairs weak line
 

another hand i think i played badly but not sure why. i think i justify being passive here as if i raise then i only get called by what better hands. How do people usually play these hands/plan these hands?

FWIW against a button raiser i'l CR most dry flops and sets. in this hand the raiser is tight ish from early plays a 18/14 game and AGG on all streets.

This looks fine, although I check raise the flop sometimes. Usually against a button or co raiser.
