villan is a massive CS so I'm jumping with joy when I hit my TPTK :] and I kind'a lost myself and stoppped thinking and as a result I got my money in poorly. How should it be palyed? bigger flop rise for sure , I think sth lik 5,5~6$ would be ok. Now lest look at our possibilities on the turn, one opion is to c/r big  which is ok since he'll call with worse and If he checks the turn and bad card falls we can bet/fold or c/f without investing tones of money into the pot. We can also bet huge on the turn but the river gets tricky than becouse we cant b/f and from time to time we'll have to c/f when opponent has worse Q. And also I think I should never call river rise as played (even if its 8$)

and thats the way to play with passive CS oop

ofcourse at the turn and river you have to be ready to fold your hand to the rise. Now I just realized my bet siznig was poor in this hand as well(10$-turn, 20$ river and as a result 5$ more for me). I'll have to work on that.
