Isn't this the Ed Miller hand?

[fretelöo]

Villain is loose-passive like most 30/3/0.4

Preflop: Hero is CO with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG calls, <font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, Hero calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (4 SB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, SB folds, BB folds, UTG calls.

I'm not sure I want to fold, and I don't think calling can be right, as it'll give those behind me better odds. Plus, maybe I'm folding QT etc. Also, I might buy a free card.

Turn: (4 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
UTG checks, Hero ???

Bet? Or be happy that I get a free card? If the latter, what if villain bets the river?

hero looks at his hand again, yes, he still has an ace.

hero bets

[Point Blank]

ugh ... top pair "best kicker" vs a passive ...

well - if you do bet the turn, then you can safely fold to a check raise ... if he doesn't then you just bet the turn for a free showdown

Assuming he just calls, do you bet the river?

Check the turn, call a bet on the river. If villian checks river, check along.

vs. loose passive it's an easy bet/fold to raise
check behind on river unimproved.

Bet/fold and then bet/fold again. The rest of you are on crack.

I'll put the pipe down and get more agressive. Thank you.

raise or fold preflop.

and yes, bet the turn.

If you are talking about the hand that Miller says to just call the flop bet, no. IIRC, that hand did not have any draws on the flop.
