22 - Easy value bet?

[Redeye]

Villian is 25/4, looks fairly passive. BB is like 60/20 or so.

Flop: I was planning on C/Ring what usually seems like an automatic button bet here.

I bet/fold flop.

Villian's WtSD would have to be pretty damn high for me to bet this river.

I'd probably c/c the river. I think it would be marginally better than c/f.

I bet/fold flop.

Probably the better line... I like to do this occasionally to punish those guys that limp, autobet on the button. Maybe its not a good strategy against a guy like this.

I also do this sometiems to extract more on a board like this where I think people will almost always fold to my bet (except when I am beat). But again, maybe thats meant for the more aggressive bluffaholic type players.

One final note I didn't include, villian did pause for a few seconds before calling, which change my mind from check-fold to bet-fold.
