SB: $12.51 (125.1 bb)
BB: $10.96 (109.6 bb)
Hero (CO): $10 (100 bb)
BTN: $13.59 (135.9 bb)

Preflop: Hero is CO with 4 4
Hero raises to $0.30, BTN calls $0.30, 2 folds

Flop: ($0.75) 3 2 3 (2 players)
Hero bets $0.50, BTN calls $0.50

Turn: ($1.75) Q (2 players)
Hero bets $1.35, BTN calls $1.35

River: ($4.45) 9 (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN checks

55/10 over 53 hands, AF 0.8

Flop is getting a ton of calls w/ all his draws and overcards which there are plenty. The turn changes little really as I can see him still calling a ton. When I check river I don't know how likely I am to make it to showdown which i'm aiming to do w/ our hand.

Hi Legand

Preflop: looks fine

Postflop: the turn is also a good card for him to stab on but since he seems more passive I think betting is ok. It's thin so your larger bet is not really warranted vs a passive fish.

I'd bet smaller here overall.

Ok I can see the reasoning there.

And I guess on the river since he's passive we're x/folding (as we'll be respecting his aggression).

Yes, we would be.

Also, vs fish, don't be afraid to vary your bet size given the strength of your hand. Obviously not huge differences but stronger = bigger.

Yeah that's a fair point. The only thing I would be wary of is, on the occasions that we bet smaller w/ our bluffs we could be inducing so I can't be betting too small if we expect to induce esp. when we have marginal holdings.

There are spots where you can easily bet small as a bluff, even 1/3 pot

For example getting to the river with T high and all draws missed...

You can throw a 1/3 pot to fold better draws knowing that pairs+ will call (good vs passive fish).
