Hey Phgrinder,

Preflop iso-raise is fine.

Flop for value is good.

Turn check is fine here, should generally be with the intention of x/c twice especially with the nut flush blocker. However this particular opponent is clearly very nitty and we can likely make an exploitative river fold.

How can check be fine vs tight passive opponent? Imo we should bet and river reduce size

Probably better to bet turn vs this opponent.

It's fine to check turn with some strong hands generally speaking, but here it's better to bet vs passive opponent. Didn't read the hand properly.
