Hello there, I am a beginner in NL2z trying to improve !

Preflop : Villain being button i would consider 3bet heads up, but the limper makes me want to flat as I am not folding AJs, especially against 28/24 villain

Flop : 3 way, i dont see any reason for me to donk , given thant there will probably be at least one bet (i've read that there is very rarely a good reason to, especially in NL2).

Turn : Not the best card as it helps hands like A2, A3, even but I dont think it represents a big part of his range. Villain did bet the flop so I'll give him the opportunity to bet turn and probably call. Is it too passive ?

River : Not a good card for me, if he had broadways including a K (like KQ,KJ) I am now beaten. I am definitely not leading here as I would only be called by better (or QJ maybe) and would make fold worse (except QJ maybe). His bet size being 2/3 means that I need to win 28% of the time to be breakeven on this call (is my calculation good ?). With TPTK and a player that isn't overly tight i decided that I was good but I don't really know about that. What do you think ?

I understand from the preamble that you have AJs (what suit?) and I'm guessing you're in the BB.
I think flatting pre is OK as you don't mind the limper coming along. Post-flop seems reasonable. It's not exactly a fist-pump call on the river, but it's a call all the same. You can probably fold worse jacks on the river though.

Sorry I didn't see that it wasn't included. I had AhJh and I am indeed BB. Thanks for your insights !
