Hi!
Opponent is a fish: 59/5 in 340 hands. He doesn't look particularly aggressive postflop so far.

When fishes start donking the turn or river big when some draws hit, they usually have it.

Here I think I can't fold my hand since sometimes he might be valuebetting some two pairs or some lower set. But with TPTK or ovpair would you fold on the turn?

Party, $0.25/$0.50 No Limit Hold'em Cash, 5 Players

SB: $58.68 (117.4 bb)
BB: $45.60 (91.2 bb)
MP: $96.82 (193.6 bb)
Hero (CO): $50 (100 bb)
BTN: $98.65 (197.3 bb)

Preflop: Hero is CO with 9 9
MP raises to $1.50, Hero calls $1.50, 2 folds, BB calls $1

Flop: ($4.75) 2 T 6 (3 players)
BB checks, MP checks, Hero bets $3, BB calls $3, MP folds

Turn: ($10.75) 9 (2 players)
BB bets $10.04, Hero calls $10.04

River: ($30.83) 5 (2 players)
BB bets $31.06, Hero ???

Hi Shakaflaka

Preflop: looks fine

Postflop: You do have a fair sample on him so I would definitely look at what reads/notes we have and then, if those don't exist, look at the stats. 340 hands for someone that played more than half of them should be a big enough sample to get a good idea about the player.

Now, let's assume he is really passive then I would worry on the turn with TP or worse because he reps 78 and 2p+ and sometimes a big combo draw.

With sets we still beat some of his value hands so we can't fold.
