I have a few questions here.

1. Is the rr on the flop a good move?

2. What about my turn play, should I have bet more checked any thoughts?

On the River I put him on the a broken fd, but since this is my first hand at the table I just called to see what was going on here.

I know it is only one hand but he kept playing this way the whole rest of the time I was at the table and I didn't know how to adjust to him.

Do I treat him as a calling station because he did call down with pretty much any pair, but he did also raise rarely pre-flop. He also would take the lead in the betting occasionally, but usually he was just calling.

Do you just tighten up here and bet your monsters pre-flop?

Do you loosen up since his range is pretty wide and value bet your made hands on the flop?

Thanks in advanced.
