Default NL50 AQo taking a passive line with TPTK

Over a few hands (~50 or so) Villain was 12/10/3.
I checkraise this on the flop sometimes, here I figured I would call. Villain seemed aggro enough to fire a second barrel at the scare card on the turn, so I called again. Would you have raised/folded at any point in this hand ? Also if you like this line what would you do on a blank river ? Block, c/f ??

I really hate this considering how nitty villain is. Especially on a draw heavy board im going to c/r that flop all day and basically shut down if nitbox calls

What's his range- AQ+, 10+. He looks like a villain who multi-tables and playes for stacks with over pairs and set mining. (If I'm wrong and he's just a one table nit- what a boring life!).

You don't know what he has by calling everything- what do you do when he pots in on the river? I'd c/r flop and bail if he calls and fires on turn.

As far as river- I think I c/f if he fires more than half the pot. I'm not a fan of mixing it up with a nit with only TPTK. The way you played this hand is the way these dudes wait and wait to get paid off w their better pairs.

Reraise preflop or fold IMO - His range is wider in the CO and we get the initive meaning when we cbet he must fold his 88's rather than cbet us off a 23K board.


Now we've called preflop, i'd like to raise the flop vs his Cbet. If he goes crazy i can lay my hand down to his set/Overpair.

I like to mix between calling, raising and folding preflop. Since he's in LP I'm probably ahead of his range though.
My line seemed good at the time but in retrospect it puts me in a very awkward spot on most rivers.
Thanks for the replies.
