They will go broke quickly and die if they call with QJ here after EP donks and you call. Putting in an extra bet on your part is really unnecessary.
yep, that's what I've meant; and yes, they call, go broke, don't die, reload and go broke again It looks like there is a full consensus that raising flop is a mistake, so thanks guys - will adjust my aggressiveness in this spot.

He runs bad, losing a lot and definitely seems to be annoyed that I iso him frequently. He is passive overall and almost never bluffs, but I did observe him taking dumbly aggressive lines in a couple spots, all involved donking a made hand and then barrelling when turn/river clearly improved his opponent's hand. He also donked draws a couple of times, but I never seen him showing complete airballs. He pretty much never check raises, donking out is his preferred line for any ocassion that needs aggression/initiative from his perspective. He seems to be playing over his head and hates losing money.

HJ limps, Hero raises red 55, blinds call, HJ calls
Flop(8sb): A32r HJ donks, hero raises, blinds fold, HJ 3!, hero calls
Turn(HU, 7BB): A HJ bets, hero calls
River (HU, 9BB): 7 HJ bets, hero ?

Now, a little nuance is that my notes on the hand show that blinds folded before the flop, and then again that they fold on the flop - so I can't remember for sure - pot could have been 1.25bb smaller during the hand, compared to what I posted
I would just call OTF and pussy out ott and fold. I wouldn't call that is I'd either raise or fold -And prob fold ott.
