blind battle

Villian has only been at the table a few orbits. pretty loose preflop so far and fairly passive. it was blind vs blind an orbit or two ago and i had A7o, raised pf and bet a ragged flop and he folded.

Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is BB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
4 folds, SB completes, Hero raises, SB calls.

Raise here always?

Flop: (4 SB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets, SB raises, Hero 3-bets, SB caps, Hero calls.

Whats the plan here after he caps? i'm pretty sure i've got to show this down so i decide i'm calling down unimproved.

Turn: (6 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)
SB bets, Hero calls.

River: (8 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)
SB bets, Hero...

well, i just improved, but only over 2 pair combinations of 9 3 and 2. also, the clubs didn't come. does a raise have any merit here?

I probably wouldnt raise here...but i think id regret it.

Im interested to see other input...

*edit*
I think a raise has merit if you can fold to a 3bet.

The only possible hand that he has that you just "improved on" is 93 as the other twopair hand involving the 2 is not likely because he capped the flop. There is no reason to think the turn helped him. I don't think he has a worse hand 50% of the time here.

I would just call.

Also don't forget he could have a big pair here. People play Aces weird.

I'm just calling this down. Getting 3 bet on the river makes me throw up in my mouth
