Typical Party NL25 Fri night table.

Party Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.10/$0.25
10 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $32.80
UTG+1: $24.15
UTG+2: $48.34
MP1: $34.18
MP2: $58.01
MP3: $25.91
CO: $27.50
Button: $4.40
Hero: $31.53
BB: $22.80

Villain is loose wicked passive.Up to this hand he has not raised ONCE;only check called or check folded(with the ocassional clown donk bet).A "dream opponent as Mike Sexton would say."

Pre-flop: (10 players) Hero is SB with :ah :2d
UTG calls $0.25 (pot was $0.35), UTG+1 folds, UTG+2 calls $0.25 (pot was $0.6), MP1 calls $0.25 (pot was $0.85), 3 folds, Button calls $0.25 (pot was $1.1), Hero calls $0.15 (pot was $1.35), BB checks.

Flop: :kd :2h :ac ($1.5, 6 players)
Hero bets $0.95, 2 folds, UTG+2 calls $0.95 (pot was $2.45), 2 folds.

Normally I'd go for a check raise but with so many players and a decent draw board I decide to lead out(a few days ago I would've pushed;but I realize the fallacy in that of course).

Turn: :3c ($3.4, 2 players)
Hero bets $2.46, UTG+2 calls $2.46 (pot was $5.86).

Turn isn't what I'd like to see but I can't just check this.I decide to lead out for an amount I can get off of if folded(even bad players can hit hands too).

River: :4c ($8.32, 2 players)
Hero bets $3, UTG+2 calls $3 (pot was $11.32).

The river is scary here as it completes the runner runner flush,any wheel,and runner runner/gutshot straights.I decide to block bet;if he raises I have to fold.

Results:
Final pot: $14.32

Thoughts and feedback are welcome on all streets.

Seems good, what was the plan if he did raise at any point?

The plan was to fold with confidence;because at that point I was betting to save money and gain info.

Villain showed AA for Top Set btw.
