UTG checks, econ_tim checks.

i want to showdown, but i don't want to pay too much.

villain was somewhat loose/passive preflop over small sample: 40/10. and his flop check is pretty suspicious.

Seems okay. Not sure I would go that many bets if I spiked a ten.

Here's my usual plan. I have no idea if it's good or not.

I bet the flop. If he check/raises the flop I suspect FPS and call down unless an A hits the board, then I fold.

If he calls the flop bet and checks the turn then I check through the turn and call a river bet.
