Villain plays 50/34 over a couple hundred hands. I have no idea about what's best here. Guess I'll give a little insight to my thought process.

Pre is standard.
Villain has a high Aggr% on basically every street. I usually play really conservative postflop vs. aggressive players. Especially when I am OOP.
Like what's standard here on the flop. C/c, c/r, b/c, b/broke!? I don't think to much about balancing here but I think I almost always c/c here.
The turn obviously is a great card since we beat 89 now and some crazy random two pair that he could have. Also no flush possible makes me feel pretty good. As said villain is aggressive and I expect him to bet again so I check. Is there ever a time where a donk makes sense? This is gonna be read dependent right? Like if villain is naturally more passive it would make sense to donk right?

In general donk betting comes into question if board changes or turn card is lot better for your range. Not sure if K is really any better for either player? This line seems good to me. I doubt we want to stack off flop with just overpair and 9 blocker with SPR close to 7. Turn seems fine.

I think this turn is straightforward one. Only A turn I would think of donk betting really with this hand as I think lot of people will just check for chance we have AA. Q, J, T, 7, 6 at least I would just x-f turn. Unless they are some spade. I suppose on pairing and 2 or 4 rivers we would be inclined to call again?

Sounds reasonable, thanks.
