I only have 75 hands on villain, but he seems pretty weak/passive. Earlier he flat-called a raise pre-flop with QQ and then called down about $20 in bets even after an A came on the flop (and lost to AJ). Stats are 35/3/1.5. A line-check would be appreciated.

i think you played it fine up until the river...at this point i am usually checking because there isn't much of a chance he is calling w/out straight or flush to your large bet, but if you check to him he is pretty likely to bet w/ two pair or something of the sort, plus he could always throw out a bluff...if he hit a flush than oh well, that is poker.

I would check/call the river. Pretty obvious that he was chasing something. I'd say you're beat.

Yea, I wouldnt mind a check call on the river, but I think a flush is unlikely except for like QJs which actually makes a some sense for a player like this. So yea, check/call that river, if you are betting the river Id just push because you arent folding to a push from him.

so you're putting him on what? No pair just two diamonds on the flop? picks up the draw and calls a 8/10ths pot bet (it was easy math)?
easy money.

QJ looks likely, QT if he's a total idiot. The board looks too uncoordinated for the diamond draw. My guess is you're splitting the pot here. Check call the river.

Anyone who check/calls this river against a loose/passive opponent hates money.

Bet/Call is a fine line. We want to get called. Really depends on how much we think he'll pay off for. If you think he's calling a push with 2 pair, then go for it!
