I've played with this dude before, he is passive and a big calling station. One of my notes is that he donks top pair and that he pots with really strong hands, straights, sets etc. If he has a hand like top pair I expect him to lead this flop 100% of the time since its drawy. My hand isn't in that bad shape, I have backdoor outs and I block some combos of straight draws that he might have. He doesn't fold a 9 ever, but he also won't fold a K or raise it, he plays QQ and JJ the same way.
Is check folding the turn okay?
His bets are those small "please call me" ones. This is one of the spots where I think I need to tighten up, I think I am loosing alot here.

Same dude from hand above. With this hand, vs this player I normally bet and re raise until he says stop. He won't fold flush or str8 draws or a weaker A or 7 or T. Since he plays every hand his range is all over the place, there's other pp that he can have as well. Should I have raised the flop more since my hand is in great shape. I don't like the turn since it completes one str8 but it also gives him a pair if he called the flop with QJ and I still have a gut shot now. Watching it back I didn't hesitate on the turn (did I raise to little?), this is something that I really need to work on, take my time. Now the river, does anyone just call that bet or do we still re raise and if we raise how much. Or is this river always a shove?

First hand I would most likely fold the river. You beat only a bluff and I doubt most villains would bluff with a small sizing like this, but sometimes you can expect some strange thinks.

2nd hand is really strange, but for 20c more I can't really fold the river and I doubt you get any better hand to fold with a big raise based on the flop and turn action.

Cheers,
