Well you got villain to call you down and you got the money in, so your play looks just fine.

Against a station I might have just bet every street and almost got similar results, though your C/R definitely let you get more money in by the end of the hand.

The way it turned out worked, but I'd generally just lead the turn here

I would lead the the turn again this guy is a total station. But if you c/r be sure to raise more to protect your hand.

4 on the flop + 11 on the turn + shove river = max value

I dont expect this guy to fold TP

Also .. I generally wouldn't try to steal the button with T9o from a guy playing 56% of his hands.

SB and BB "fold to steal" were high, so I decided it's worth openraising here

bet more on the flop, around $4. I would probably just fire on the turn again. 2p hands, especially a 2p hand that isn't top 2 is sooo vulnerable, especially when the river is a K.

I would probably bet the river as well if I bet the turn.

60 hands is too small plenty of stats to converge. I would bet that "fold to steal" is one of them.

Save the check raises for villains who can be counted on to bet.
