After a very good session at a table my opponents have become scared.

I have been checkraising them on the turn and river so often now they just check the river.

What are some of the ways I can take advantage of these scared opponents?

Thanks

You should get lots of free cards. Passive opponents are great for letting you see the turn and river for free. They may even lay down better hands to aggression.

Properly utilizing free card plays is a must against scared opponents. I'm assuming by "scared," you mean that they'll still call down, but they won't do your betting for you?

Scared as in checking the river with KK on a board with no draws/overcards because you are afraid of being checkraised for the tenth time (I'd just hit 2 pair as well damn).

But yeah the freecard play is a good one I will try to remember that next time.
