KQo against a Passivo

[wuarhg]

Villano is 43/8, PF-AGG 0.8

Pre-flop and flop are pretty standard. I felt this opponent, especially these passive ones would've pulled a stop n go on the turn here if he had an Ace, and if he really had one he would definately bet his trips on the river because these guys are always so afraid to miss a bet.

What you think?

If he's a passive player, he's likely not betting a draw or a Q on the flop.

You're also the preflop and flop raiser, These guys also are afraid of bigger kickers. Even if they have AJ.

Will this player bet a Q or flushdraw you think?
I dont know the guy in this case but i dont think i would risk him having the ace in this small pot, tho i would pick this line against a totally unknown.

With 0.8 post-flop aggression, I'd doubt he's betting anything but an ace here. He's probably afraid of your kicker. I'd either release it on the flop, or play it like you did except that I'd check through the river.

Even someone who has 0.8 PF-AGG and a high VP$IP can be pretty aggro. You must consider how much he is calling versus betting/raising. Just something I have observed.
