Villain had stats of VPIP 45/ PFR 9 / AF 0 (11 hands)

I decide to limp behind because the table was passive, I didn't think I would get raised too often and I didn't mind playing a limped pot IP versus a presumed fish with a broken stack. I know I don't have a ton of implied odds but I decided to play.

On the flop I try to start building a pot, Villain calls. I think V's calling range can be
any A4,A3,A2, 22-88, maybe some big-cards that wanted to peel one like JT,QJ,AT,AJ etc.

On the turn I bet and get raised, whats this guys raising range? if he's a broken stack isn't there a decent chance this can be spew with a good diamond ? villain can probrably have a ton of Ad hands in his range I have him calling flop with a ton of Ax hands.

Villain's value range would be 99,22,A5 type hands and turned flushes.

Maybe he can be over-playing A9, or has a semi bluff with a good diamond?

Against this range if we include the Ad semi-bluffs and overplayed A9 we have 64% equity. The problem is villains stack will be small once we call and I feel like maybe this is a push or fold spot? wasn't quite sure. I call and Jc comes on the river. Villain open shoves here. We are getting 2:1. We don't have much stats on villain but his AF was 0 over 11 hands. I heard villains are under-bluffing at these stakes but have found some villains in particular will do bluff quite a bit. Do we give villain the benefit of the doubt at fold river because we have small sample size to make any clear conclusions about his range here? I decided to fold and figured he had the flush or better.

Jam turn imo (only cause he is short)

As far as preflop, im really not sure what I like.

I actually think I prefer limp or fold. Think this is too weak to iso.

overlimping is meh at nl2 because of the rake

jamming turn seems best

what are your preflop stats? i find myself disagreeing with some of your preflop decisions and they lead you into tough spots in most of these hands you post

I think this is played fine, fish wakes up when the board changes significantly on the turn, sure call a street with trips but I'd be very, very comfortable folding the river. This isn't A9, if it's something like AdTx then well played them. But it won't be. As you say there are a lot of value combos (loads of flushes, 22, 99, As5s, maybe even A5o)

As for preflop police, at these stakes if you're getting marginal decisions wrong it's probably costing you pennies over the course of a year.

I would fold pre, just find this type of hand would get me in trouble quite a bit. Wouldn’t be too happy about the turn raise guess I’d fold river as it does seem like a flush
