He is very passive and often won't make a continuation bet on the flop so better donkbet here. (If you saw him betting in all spot and the AF is wrong then a check/raise is fine.)

The spot you are in is ugly. Very often you are either dominated or they fold because of the ace on the board so you will lose big pots very often and only win ery small. Better either raise this hand preflop or fold it but do not call it.

Here a fold is the best you can do. If you see value because 1 player posted the blind then raise but gain your hand is a bit too weak for that also. A8s is a raise A7s a fold in my opinion.
