[tg]Position:hands/vp$ip/pfr/af/wts/ats/foldbb/w$sd;BB:204/38/10/0.4/39/58/13/41;[/tg]
0.50/1 Fixed-Limit Hold'em (6 handed)

Preflop: Hero is CO with 4♥, 4♦
2 folds, Hero raises, 2 folds, BB calls.

Flop: (4.50 SB) 5♣, Q♠, K♦ (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets, BB calls.

Turn: (3.25 BB) 3♦ (2 players)
BB checks, Hero checks.

BB is passive, has a low foldBBtosteal ... should I bet the turn here? The turncard doesn't change anything, and I should protect against JT, Ax ... and a lot of overcard hands, right?
River: (3.25 BB) K♣ (2 players)
BB checks, Hero checks.

and here again ... K might have raised the flop or bet the turn, therefore I see it as a blank. But on the other hand I don't think a worse hand will call here, and a Q will definitely call.
Final Pot: 3.25 BB

Results follow (highlight to see):
BB shows [ Ac, Qh ] two pairs, Kings and Queens

Hero shows [ 4h, 4d ] two pairs, Kings and Fours
BB wins $3.10 USD with two pairs, Kings and Queens.

hm as he is passive he could play a Q or even a K this way (not check/raising the flop). but nevertheless i think i would bet the turn for a free showdown. there are some straight draws out there.
