Default 5/10 flopped the nuts...

its not SOP that i raised QJo preflop in SB... i just felt overall the table was very weak-tight, so the limp didn't worry me (he just sat down but already limped and folded flop a few times) and i figured i'd get the BB to fold.

anyway the flop pretty much bailed me out of any problems, but then i run into continued aggression onto the turn that paired the board. slow down completely or cap the turn or was how i played it okay?

I do not like this. With no read on MP, how can you give credit for any hand that beats you? I think you need to 3-bet somewhere. Probably the river.

after capping the flop, and the ten coming, what hand do you think a passive player going to be raising the turn with? he isn't limping in AK/AQ. capping rainbow flop vs a preflop raiser. I can't see him raising without AT/KT/QJ and i lose to two of them and tie one. just in case he went crazy with Ax i bet out on the river....

Um it says he just posted.
1. How do you know he is passive
2. Wouldn't he raise any hand on the turn that beats you here pf.. like TT KK AA. To give him credit for a boat on the turn here is very very weak tight. I would 3bet the turn here exactly 100% of the time.

I don't see how bet-calling the turn then bet-calling the river is "giving him credit for a boat". To me, that's putting the right number of bets in. Any more bets going in probably means you're losing, but any fewer is indeed weak-tight. I like it.
