villain is a donating donkey running 50/10/3 over 100 hands. On the turn i was going for a checkraise but im thinking i should have just bet near to pot. Then on river do you ever bet this for value or just check call hoping to catch a bluff, i think i should have gone for the latter.

I'm 50/50 on betting the turn.
This hand looks a lot like small PP's / drawing hands. By checking, we certainly get a call when we bet the river and we might get bluff action into us on wiffed drawing hands. Checking oop here can get 3 streets of value too.

ok, lets say we check the turn to villain, and he almost pots for 65-70, i really hate check calling in this spot so its an easy shove over yes?

it's harder to check/raise when you LED THE FLOP
you're supposed to check/raise when it's not going to get checked behind... as in against an aggressor from the previous street

there are 3 streets of value for me in this hand.
the only hand im concerned with is JJ and considering he'll look up 3 streets with A9/A7 type hands you know he is playing at 50/10 i think turn is an easy bet setting up a river push for value or a c/c his big bluff.
Id bet 55 on turn, possible fold to a shove (but i doubt it) and check to opp on river and let him bet

I dont overly get what your trying to say here but the amount of times i see villains in pos stab at the turn for a healthy bet when checked to is ridiculous, they see my flop bet as a c bet and just think im giving up with overs thus they bet, most of the time on a semi bluff or with the worse hand. Thats what im getting at here though I now agree i should have bet near pot myself rather than checking.

another very similiar hand to the one above, is betting the turn once again the optimal play? what makes the decision harder was that the villain was a complete unknown.

As played, I prefer to shove over on the turn... Often times, he floats this kind of flop with pairs less than TT.

Hand 2: I prefer the way you played this hand vs. Hand 1.
I like the option of c/r turn here but I tend to lean towards the c/c line.

on the turn i feel we are good loads so i c/r rather than betting as villain can easily call a pot bet and bluff lots of rivers.
Also this donkey doesnt know to take a free card so he will bet something (something pretty dumb normally) so c/r isnt worse than a lead bet

Yeah but I win the "how to play the hand correctly now that we know the results" prize 
/resultsOriented
I still think that someone who's this damn loose over 100 hands should be a great candidate for flop/turn value on a drawey board with an overpair.
As played I probably c/c the river like a station hoping he'll bluff the river scare card, but maybe I should stop expecting bad players to be this advanced

na c/c rivers when the board blanks out against average/bad villains is +++ ev, i dont know why i didnt do it myself, would have likely saved myself some money on that first hand.
