PokerStars, Hold'em No Limit - $0.01/$0.02 - 6 players

not much known about villain, seemed kind of reg-ish.

Hand delivered by Upswing Poker

UTG: $3.14 (157 bb)
MP: $2.05 (103 bb)
CO: $2.80 (140 bb)
BU (Hero): $2.11 (106 bb)
SB: $2.31 (116 bb)
BB: $5.09 (255 bb)

Pre-Flop: ($0.03) Hero is BTN with 6 5
2 players fold, CO raises to $0.06, Hero 3-bets to $0.16, 2 players fold, CO calls $0.10

Flop: ($0.35) 5 A 3 (2 players)
CO checks, Hero bets $0.11, CO calls $0.11

Turn: ($0.57) 7 (2 players)
CO checks, Hero bets $0.30, CO calls $0.30

River: ($1.17) 9 (2 players)
CO checks, Hero checks

thought about checking turn but I thought I might be able to get him off a weaker ace or some 88-JJ, river I don't think my hands good often but decided to give up because 2nl players get sticky with top pair. Thoughts?

Its typical bluffing hand that plays bet-bet-give up. Turn bet still folds enough hands to go for it. However on river you have bad blockers(you block folding range and unblock Ax) so its time to give up.

I don't think it's to bad to just call 65s in position. 65s can play well and you don't want to lose control pre-flop over the pot with a decent drawing hand.

Post-flop seems standard.

yes yes i love to call preflop vs them i think it is easier to get them to fold postflop. they always suspect 3bet pre to be a bluff there i think...

You only want to 3bet it vs players who fold a lot vs 3bets it's a pretty borderline hand so without that info you just want to be folding or maybe flatting pre.As played i think its played ok i also don't really mind a turn check either having the pair.
