Not sure if can fold this PF given the stacks vs a Loose Passive Fishy Player this deep. River is the worst card in the deck I think since KK would be a hand he would 3b with such a depolarized range pf. Any thoughts on this fold? Maybe I am just too nitty? I don't see him flatting the turn with QQ/JJ/TT. We lose to AA, KK, AK, 99 here. Beat AQ and AJ (AJ wouldn't be in that range though)

Easy call pre against this villain.
Although his PFR and 3bet are not that high.

I don't hate checking behind on this turn, although charging draws seems fine too.
I'd check, since I don't want to build a large pot with TP second kicker.
Especially given the real chance villain will show up with TPTP here, or something weird like 99 or A9.
Anyways, there's arguments for both plays, I think the turn bet is fine.

River is an easy fold.
AK is very likely, as is AA, KK or 99.
There's no way you're ahaid, unless villain is on a total bluff or completely over values AJ maybe AT, but I don't see that happening.
And if he is, you'll be winning his money soon enough when you find a better spot.

K of clubs would've been an even worse card

I'm checking Turn here as well.

Im not sure about defending AQo pre here the call is b/e at a 50% win rate, what range did you think v uses as a 3bet?

His stats look like KQs+ JJ+ AQs+ and AK to me, did he show any bluffy 3bets? Its a fine call if he shows postflop tendencies that you can use to take the pot away, id fold as a defaut though. Maybe im too nitty?

The call on the flop is good, why isolate yourself against the stronger part of his range and blow away his bluffs.

Id be tempted to check the river you have fairly stable SD and again give his bluffs the opportunity to bet on the river with the intention of calling any bet below 70% pot. Pot bets and up id have to think about, you did say he was passive.

The river is a fold. When Passive players bomb a river its usually nutty, you're not leaving any value behind.

fold pre, its breakeven in equity, you risk being dominated and you have not given any info on v. AP check back turn since fish do randomly check the turn with nutted hands and then will tell you what they have on the river since they are oop, then you can go for value sometimes if they check.
