Im new at 25NL so only have around 10 hands on Villain - 90/40/2 so i think its safe to assume hes loose over a larger sample. I read a lot about double barelling on here but never really know when to use it. I think he would raise the flop with a decent Q, which is why I bet the turn, to try and push him off a lower pp or something like K10/J10. If im raised on the turn/river i think i have to fold. Any comments about how i played this?

bode is an unknown quantity at this point

check behind on the turn. villains this loose are calling you with any peice of the board and any gutshot. definitly value bet the river though.

How much would you bet on the river? I was going to bet $6.50 - but thought if he did have something like KQ, JQ or maybe even a worse Q then he might still call $8.

check turn (not a good double barrel spot in 25NL. double barrel in some places is fine, but I don't think its good here).
B/F river. 5/6 pot is fine.

In general you shouldn't 2 barrel air or marginal draws. against people who won't fold when they call the flop. If you have a hud add folds to turn bet 2 it. (Although the turn bet definitely could be for value). I would be value betting 7 or 8 on the river.

Good cards to 2 barrel are any ace or king or a card higher than the highest card on the flop. Bad cards to 2 barrel are cards that pair the board and any cards that doesn't change the flop texture like a 2 on a A107 board.
