PokerStars, Hold'em No Limit - $0.02/$0.05 - 4 players
Hand delivered by Upswing Poker

UTG: $8.72 (174 bb)
BU: $3.73 (75 bb) - fish with 40VPIP / 0PFR, no reads on aggressivity
SB: $5.05 (101 bb)
BB (Hero): $8.24 (165 bb)

Pre-Flop: ($0.07) Hero is BB with 4 2
1 fold, BTN calls $0.05, 1 fold, Hero checks

Flop: ($0.12) T 2 4 (2 players)
Hero bets $0.12, BTN calls $0.12

The limp could be almost anything and I bet potsize to get some value with my random good hand.

Turn: ($0.36) J (2 players)
Hero bets $0.35, BTN calls $0.35

River: ($1.06) T (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN bets $0.50, BB (Hero) folds

After the call on flop and turn I'm spectical as Tx could definitely be in his range, maybe also J4s/J2s (but also any other Jx). I probably would have called a small river bet but fold on 1/2 potsize. Too weak?

Against a fish with 40 VPIP, i think call is better. He is stabs on river with A3/A5/33/55/66/56 random FD and more trash than you can figure.

Against a loose passive fish a fold is fine I think.
Decent change he/she isn't capable to bluff the river with a missed draw and you beat only a bluff now.

Cheers,
