Default early 20/40 hand A9s vs TAG

unfortunatly all I really had for information is as follows:

He was 18/11 after 100 hands, but those numbers are based on 6 handed games. His PFaggro was 2.3. This was my second orbit at the table, I have raised a few times, with a few legit hands and have shown down good cards mostly - not sure if he's really paying attention though. He has folded like a good boy each time i've raised.

I have A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3 off the gun - folds to me and I raise. TAG 3bets and it is heads up to a flop of
K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

I check he bets I raise he calls and we see a turn K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
I bet and he calls after about a second or two.

The river comes a Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

I sadly check he bets and I think as the counter times down and finally call.

Pro or Shmo?

edit: it seems pretty clear to me I only messed up 1 street but am interested in other opinions -

Hmmm... Tough spot, I like the play on all streets up to the river but I don't think you have to pay off on the end. Some might say bet/fold, and this has some merit but if the PF #s you gave are real (18/11 in 6-handed! and pretty passive), you can't win here.

You beat AJ and PPs under 9? I haven't really seen people lay down hands like JJ-TT to a flop checkraise here, definately not when the second K shows up on the turn. I would prefer bet-fold or check-fold on the river. Leaning more towards check-fold.

2.3 is "pretty passive" now?

18/11 in 6-handed games is really tight

Against 18/11 SIX HANDED you can probably fold this on the turn. Pretty easy fold on the river.

Are you saying this is a check/fold on the turn after I c/r the flop? Or do you not like the flop c/r? What do you do then?

A bit confused
