Loose Passive Opponents

[zram21]

After what appears to have been just a good run of cards to start my 6 max career I have been really struggling to adjust from the full tables. I think my biggest problem is knowing when to turn the aggression off and when to give players credit for their hand. I have a couple of examples against some loose passive opponents that I would love some advice on.

Hand #1: UTG is 51.76/5.88/0.75 after 80 hands

Preflop: Hero is MP with A/images/graemlins/spade.gif, A/images/graemlins/heart.gif.
UTG calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB calls, BB calls, UTG calls.

Flop: (8 SB) 2/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 3/images/graemlins/heart.gif, T/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, SB folds, BB folds, UTG calls.

Turn: (5 BB) 4/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, UTG calls.

River: (9 BB) Q/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, UTG calls.

Final Pot: 11 BB

Should I be concerned with the turn bet at all? Is this a good value bet at the river?

Hand #2: UTG in this hand is the same as the last hand. The button is 65.38/0.00/1.91 after 26 hands

Is this river check weak?

Hand one looks fine, hand two I'm betting the river unless I close the action, but a check/call there I doubt is far (if any) behind betting.

I like 'em both. Unless someone hit a ten on the river in hand 2, there's not much for them to call with that you beat.
