Can't see any valuebet here. Bet/fold must be worse. True?

I don't think I could get away from value betting the river. Your opponent is loose passive and could call you down with almost anything. He only had a gutshot and an over on the flop and turn so it would be tough to put him on a straight on the river. I think a value be is good most of the time in this spot.

Revisiting the hand now I totally agree. Seems like an easy valuebet. Thx!

Hi!

Yes,you should definatelly bet and usually b/f. Bet is pretty clear as he doesnt really have that many straights in his range comparing to amount of made hands which are basically all worse. When he raises I think you are only beating when he has a made hand which he is turning into a bluff(or some random FDwhich is highly unlikely) but this guy is definatelly not looking like he is doing any bluffing at all.
