No need to overbet the flop, a psb is fine.
Bet the turn more, need value &amp; protection.
I c/f this river to most bets

I'd probably slow down there on the river. Often at these levels you'll see people limp in with weak aces or things like A/10 in late position.

The pot on the flop is $0.15. You overbet the pot with $.20.
Then the turn comes and you bet less then have the pot. That weak bet after a continuation type looking bet may look like you're weak there.

He may be calling you down with a weaker ace. I doubt he has a made straight here but anything is possible at these levels. I check the river. If you see the non-aggresive player all of a sudden make a $1 bet or somewhere around there, I might consider folding.
