Villan was 48/7/0.6

Pre Flop: Hero is MP1 with T

1 fold, UTG+1 raises to $1, Hero calls $1, 5 folds

Flop: ($2.35) 7

(2 players)
UTG+1 bets $2.50, Hero raises to $7.50, UTG+1 calls $5

Turn: ($17.35) 2

UTG+1 checks, Hero bets $6, UTG+1 raises to $17.15 all in, Hero calls $11.15

River: ($51.65) 3

Ok bleh the turn, I guess I should have shutdown and called a small river bet but I had so much in the pot already I wasn't folding.

What should my standard line here be?

What if I have JJ?

just my 0.02c: looking at villains stats (how many hands do you have on him?), he's playing loose but weak.

in this case he raised in early position, which (according to stats) he only does with premium hands. looks like an easy prefold fold to me.

Preflop is fine, even if only to set-mine. But against such a loose/passive opponent I'm not in love with TT. He bets pot on the flop indicating he has a strong hand I just call here. I'm done with it on the turn when he fires again. Pretty unlikley he has a worse hand.

Didnt have many hands on him at the time maybe 40 or 50...

Folding pre-flop seems really really tight to me.. I'd at least call all pairs pre-flop here probably reraising with AK too.

Against such a loose, passive player, a call is as aggressive as a raise on the flop. If he didn't hit, he'll probably slow down. The raise is going to be far more effective on the turn to chase him out if he bets. On the turn, check behind for pot control. As played, fold to the c/r, that's a powerful move for a passive player.

Loose-passive players (particularly ones with 0.6 AF) are never doing this without a full-house, or a 7.

Remember, they are calling-stations. Once you've labeled them as such, you want to make money by having them call you, not vice versa. They are bad because they can't let go of hands, not you.

wouldn't he just limp with 76 or A7?
