Villian is pretty tight and moderately passive. Does this look ok? Should I raise more on the turn?

I think I would have reraised preflop. You're only three-handed. Is that bad? Other than that, I think it's fine. You could maybe raise a hair more on the turn to try to tie him to the pot a bit more firmly, but not much more - you don't want him to leave.

i play it pretty much the same and expect AK to not fold to my fairly big valuebet

Out of position, PF is alright. I would lead the flop. And the rest is fine from there.

I would raise to $2 on the turn and put him all-in on the river. Normally I'd make it about 2.50 but villian is short

Check calling, Check raising > Betting IMO.

You want to trap, so bet $2 on the river. If raised, put villain all-in.

make this $0.9 preflop. river looks fine.

i disagree with the above comment from feel ivey

theres no trapping here. hero is value betting. betting $2 to get raised is bad because its very unlikely someone would be bluffing here

Grunch,

3-bet preflop. I would either lead turn or c/r bigger, like 2.5. River vb is goot.

c/r the turn harder. river is good.
