$115 NLTRN aces up get minraised
 
Villain has been very passive, missing value bets, limping a lot. He's a little on the tight side post flop too. Never seen him minraise before.

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t20 (2 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

Button (t1290)
Hero (t1710)

Preflop: Hero is in BB with 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
Button calls t10, Hero checks

Flop: (t40) 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players)

Turn: (t80) A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)

Against a passive villain I'd just call and see a cheap showdown here.

I guess there might be some really thin value in making a small reraise and folding if he comes over the top, but I don't really think it is worth getting fancy.

I agree with xSCWx .

If he had bet more on the turn , then your effective odds would be reduced significantly and calling would be that much more difficult . Since he's laying you decent odds here , I'd call hoping that he checks the river or makes another smallish bet .

how tight is he pf. If he is fairly tight you can take a lot of 2x hands out of his range.

I prefer check call . There is a decent chance that villain has played a 3-x this way and used the ace on the turn as a potential scare card.

Your only hope of winning is if he shows you 3-x or some random bluff .

Certainly call - you're ahead often enough for that.

Evaluate the river, but (unless the river is spectacular) be prepared to check/autocall 1/2 pot bet. Anything from 1/2 pot to full pot is a judgement call based on what the river is and your instinct on how he bet. An overbet probably has to be a fold against this type of opponent.
