Hero ($128.25)

Pre-flop: ($1.50, 2 players) Hero is BB 7♣ J♣
BTN bets $3, Hero bets $12, BTN calls $9.50

Flop: J♦ 3♦ 9♠ ($26, 2 players)
Hero bets $19.50, BTN calls $19.50

Turn: 3♠ ($65, 2 players)
Hero?

Hero shows: 7♣ J♣

56/44 3B:22% AF:1.2 with high aggression on flop
I was 3betting him quite a lot
as most of the players he is pretty passive in 3bet pots

Given the history (i played with him before), i think he calls here higher jacks, draws (that also have overcards) or even an overpair

I can't really play bet/fold here, given his range and my remaining stack
what should i do?

another one, same guy

Stacks:
BTN ($112.25)
Hero ($177.40)

Pre-flop: ($1.50, 2 players) Hero is BB T♣ T♦
BTN bets $3, Hero bets $10, BTN calls $7.50

Flop: J♠ 6♠ 6♦ ($22, 2 players)
Hero checks, BTN bets $22, Hero calls $22

Turn: J♥ ($66, 2 players)
Hero checks, BTN bets $22, Hero folds

Final Pot: $87
Hero shows: T♣ T♦

As I said, his flop agression was quite high
so after my check he is betting wide here, not a pure trash ofc, but overcards, draws, 77-99 very likely

I was actually going to call, if he pushes on turn, because he was showing some tilt signs at that time
but this crying value looking bet made me to fold somehow)
he is pretty loose preflop, so J or 6 is possible, but still the minority of his range

Hand 1: Depends on game dynamics. Did he catch up on you 3-betting a lot? Did you show down trash hands? Was calling flops and folding turns before? With which hands did he show aggression on the flop?

If you say he is passive, that means he is not floating, is he? So you can check/fold the turn. If he checks behind, re-evaluate the river.

Check/raising or Bet/calling are options too, but not vs. a passive opponent.

Hand 2: He is an awful player, betting that turn with that amount and TT is terribad ^^

But if you c/c the flop, c/c becomes tough because if you decide your hand is good on the turn you have to c/c most rivers and you will always face big bets. So I think you played it fine, but bet/calling the flop is ok too if he has a high AF.

He adjusted to my frequent 3bets by calling them)
so i expect him to have a wide range here
Yes, i think he managed to check down couple of my weak 3bets
I don't remeber, but he folded this turn to my bet)
In 3bet pots, I expect him to have a made hand (at least tp) when he shows agression, however, this was the case where he could deviate

About floating, normally, he doesn't
But again, given the dynamics and his estimated range, i felt like he is going to it now)

So he folded to my bet, but for now i like check/folding way more somehow


Hand 1.
c/f is standard
c/rai is when you think that he is floating and want to get extra money or him and you might even c/rai for value if he calls 88,77.
b/f if you think that he is floating with low pp-s or can fold Jx
Hand2.
Any reason to c/c?
I would make it easy bet/fold
and double barrel turn (in theory) if he calls light
