Re: 25nl where I get called a nit
1. 3-bet PF - You have a hand that is ahead of most of villains range at this point and you are OOP. Not only does a 3-bet help you to narrow villain's range, it also (a) helps to let players know (over time) that you are capable of 3-betting hands other than AA KK QQ, and (b) gives you a chance to take down the pot PF and not have to play the pot OOP post flop.
2. C/R flop - Villain will likely C-bet anything on this flop, so the C/R allows you to rep the strength of your hand while keeping the pot size manageable. By flat calling here, you give an aggressive villain every reason to think you have a weak pair or draw.
3. As played, IMO your best line from the turn onwards is to C/C both turn and river. Nothing you have done up to this point has helped to give you any info on villain's hand and thus, given that you may well be behind, you should be trying to keep the pot as small as possible so that you can get to a showdown without having to either fold or go allin.
All this is just IMHO, but i think this approach will make your decisions a lot easier.
