I think raising on the river will only make me take better hands.

partypoker - $0.05 NL FAST (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

BTN: 100 BB (VPIP: 14.67, PFR: 13.33, 3Bet Preflop: 7.69, Hands: 77)
SB: 323.8 BB (VPIP: 23.15, PFR: 18.06, 3Bet Preflop: 6.98, Hands: 220)
BB: 167.8 BB (VPIP: 62.50, PFR: 62.50, 3Bet Preflop: 100.00, Hands: 8)
UTG: 120.8 BB (VPIP: 21.39, PFR: 16.17, 3Bet Preflop: 6.00, Hands: 962)
MP: 578 BB (VPIP: 41.59, PFR: 10.62, 3Bet Preflop: 1.72, Hands: 118)
Hero (CO): 100 BB

SB posts SB 0.4 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.4 BB) Hero has 2♠ 2♣

fold, fold, Hero raises to 2.4 BB, fold, fold, BB calls 1.4 BB

Flop: (5.2 BB, 2 players) J♦ 2♦ 8♥
BB bets 3.6 BB, Hero raises to 11 BB, BB calls 7.4 BB

Turn: (27.2 BB, 2 players) 9♠
BB bets 13 BB, Hero calls 13 BB

River: (53.2 BB, 2 players) A♥
BB bets 50.6 BB,

Spoiler

Hero calls 50.6 BB

BB shows 6♦ T♦ (High Card, Ace)
(Pre 51%, Flop 26%, Turn 30%)
Hero shows 2♠ 2♣ (Three of a Kind, Twos)
(Pre 49%, Flop 74%, Turn 70%)
Hero wins 146.8 BB

Hi JanssenBatista,
You could get paid by two-pair hands.

Since you took the passive approach, I think the call on the river makes sense.
Even if it is only for information, you know now that this villain will bet 3 streets with a gutshot and flush draw.

All the best,
VS

Against viliain like this you can expect anything, call or raise are both fine,call imo is better.

Villain is unknown so far, sample size is small and we cannot make decisions based on stats.
Call and make a note.

I think when villain donks it's a nonstandard line and often means he's a weaker player. I think raising the turn is a better play here as he can have alot of draws/2pair that'll call.
Taking the passive line I feel there are too many bad rivers for our hand and alot of 10x and diamonds in his.

Raise/get it in on the turn. Your hand needs protection as this guy is draw heavy. His 1/2 turn bet means "please let me draw for half pot". Raise big the turn.

As played, raise and get it in on the river. Plenty of weaker two pairs, A♦: that he calls the all in with. You lost value here scared that he might have a straight or higher set while you were somehow with the top of your range

Definately raise turn. Only QT made it there and you still have 10 outs to improve. All other hand like Jx 2 pairs or draws will pay you off.
