Default Crazy thing I almost never do against a LAP

Villain is 40 vpip, pretty passive postflop and has a PFR of 6. Am I crazy for doing this?

Party Poker 15/30 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is CO with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button 3-bets</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP calls, Hero calls.

Flop: (10.66 SB) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
MP checks, Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets</font>, MP folds, Hero calls.

Turn: (6.33 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button Raises</font>, Hero folds.

Saved myself a BB or what?

I think he might raise for a free SD (or because he's an feels like it) with AJ-ATs. I don't much like the line you took.

Why not c/c him down after the line you took on the flop?

I like this line much more than bet/folding.

what you mean why...calling down costs 2 bets. this way i know that i could be painfully behind and it will only cost me 1 bet. 6% pfr 3-betting me can mean only a few hands.

he will not raise me w/AJ for a free SD, why? he calls down w/JJ...and raises w/AA,AK. thats what i would think a passive person does :/

I also hate this. If you are going to bet/fold the turn, why not just call down? I think you will be good enough times to see a showdown here plus the chances of improving on the river &amp; getting extra bets from an AK or AA on the river when you do hit.
