Default KQ unimproved on turn

Party Poker
Limit Holdem Ring game
Limit: $0.50/$1
4 players

Read on villain: everytime I checked to him he bet. He is 60/8/0.5 over 20 hands. Went to showdown 8 out of 16 hands he played.

Pre-flop: (4 players) Hero is UTG with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
<font color="#cc0000">Hero raises</font>, Button calls, SB folds, BB calls.

Flop: A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (6.5SB, 3 players)
BB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets</font>, Button calls, BB folds.

Turn: T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (4.25BB, 2 players)
Hero...?

i vary my play in this spot. you can fold to a raise vs a player this passive. so you can bet/fold. c/f is another strong option. after that hand i change my seat.
if i cant change my seat (table could be full), i check-raise every pair+ hand at the turn and take him to value town until he adjusts.
when i decide to bet the turn and get called i show this down UI if the board were a little more drawy at the flop. having that said, i tend more to a c/f at the turn.

tuning my fold to a river bet down, i decided to show nuts no pair hands down vs calling stations + bettors if checked to. its ridiculous what they bet at the river.

Tough spot. Sorry, no insights. Would like to read what other people say.


What would I do? I guess I'd bet the turn, considering he is such a loose calling station. Probably check/fold the river UI.

I originally misread the board and agree that this is better.

I was advised by my reviewer to bet the turn. This is why I find this hand strange, because his other suggestions were pretty much ok.

it is really read dependand and hard to just say you should do this. Most of the timesi probably bet this and hope the opponent folds his pocket deuces or something ):

He won't fold deuces. First because they take every pair to SD and because if he planned to fold deuces he would do this on the flop.

There are not many hands that we can make fold. There are even more draws availabe now. No pair is going to fold here. Betting is silly here.
