Villain is a 90/0. I table select so well huh

Anyways, is it standard to not raise the flop here? I didn't want to raise and get 3bet shoved on

And we're definitely not flatting the turn right?

Just raise/call the flop he's not folding any spade or queen to a raise although the fact that he's donking out is concerning if he's as passive postflop as he is pre. If he is really passive and you don't think he would donk with a draw, then just call down but otherwise try and get it in on the flop. Calling flop to raise a blank turn seems silly because we may not get value from all his draws and we risk a spade coming and turning our hand into a weak bluffcatcher.

i dont think post-flop reads are necessary
Against someone playing two cards we raise the flop pot the turn and bet river (prob shove river) providing
1. No spade turns up
2. Passive 98/0 doesnt get aggro

it looks like a fold. look at how he throws his cards in the muck

but on closer inspection, the file image name is fist pump so i guess we'll have to go with that :P

daven will become famous soon enough
raise the flop.
Get it in if you get the chance.
90-0 types are dead money who struggle to fold top pair. You need to be comfortable getting it in a little light against this type of player, not that this hand is light...
