villain and i have quite a few hands played together, in all honesty he seems pretty passive and fishy. likes to call down pretty light - he is the sort of player you look for when u log on...

have no specific big hands played with him i dont think because he rarely makes pots big unless he flops the nuts or something.
i figure most his hands are either jacks or clubs, but does he ever have a 10 or something here and would he call a bet with it??
im just wary of getting c/r on this river and not knowing what to do...

you´re betsizing on turn is way to small, bet 7 at least.
River is a clear vbet, i would bet 15.
A lot of the time passive fish will lead river with trips.
Passive fish call you with all kinds of things here,
i highly doubt he ever folds a pair and sometimes you can get called by a-high.
If he raises you you´re beat against this player type.

This is a clear bet/fold without any other reads. He definately calls with a ten, and probably more too.

Turn is terrible. Against these type of players, you want to be betting 3/4-4/5 pot charging draws and getting value from 10x/Jx. He's definitely not aware of your bet sizing, so by making it cheap, youre just doing him a favor.

On the river, I like value-betting. As previously said, 15 sounds good. I think that your fears of him c/ring the river are unwarranted since its unlikely that hes thinking on this level. Fish just dont think that "this guys going to be valuebetting thin against me since he knows im a fish and thus I must take advantage of these thin value bets by c/r all in with both monster and missed draws". If he has a J, I think hes just shoving the river or leading big, definitely not going for a c/r to combat your thin value. I also think its likely that he would raise the flop with a J.

Id bet and expect to get called very quickly by hands like KT/AT.
