BTN: 76/46 3b:23, 423 hands. Steal from BTN 63% so limp looks suspicious. But my hand plays better in HU pot so I decided to raise. SB 57/7 calls.

with bottom 2 pair I don't see any other option than b/f. I get value from Ax, some straight draws and I need protect my hand. I also have some backdoor equity. I get called by BB, but he folds to cbet only 18% (11) so his range is pretty wide there.

Hero bets $11.30,

and now I don't know what to do. SPR is awkward. I think bet is ok because I can still get value from Aces and draws. But I should bet bigger.

Hero checks,

river hits his range quite good and I think I should x/fold if he bets. I don't have any value in betting and he doesn't fold nothing better if I decide to turn my hand in to bluff

How do you want to get HU when BB is a 57/7? I would just complete. Folding is not bad either because you block the Q high flush and have 2 middle gaps.
I would cbet smaller OTF and way bigger OTT. I think OTR it is a ch/f because KJT and JT9 both completed + loose passive players would not turn TP into a bluff.
Preflop is good - not so much interested in getting HU as simply putting more money in with a strong hand. Unlike unbuwoha, I'm not concerned about pushing out a fish in the BB because he plays 57/7 so more than likely we'll simply get him to put extra money in with stupid hands. By limping, we don't give him the chance to make that mistake.
Flop is also good. Bet/folding for protection is basically the only line that makes sense to me here. Sizing is a touch on the large side I would say, but not so much so that I'm concerned (I may go $5.50, but w/e).
Turn is kinda interesting versus a fish who appears not to have a fold button. I think we certainly need to be betting, but I'm torn re: sizing. On the one hand, I'd be super sad to bet/fold this hand for a big bet, but on the other I don't wanna give him a good price w/ his stupid crap. In the end though, I figure to get raised so infrequently that I'd go probably closer to 3/4 pot here. So $15 sounds good.
River is a pretty easy check/fold. Villain won't bluff you (from that stats you've posted) so we can just get our two pair to showdown. I'm not crazy happy about it 'cas it's not THAT easy for this hand to win anymore, but I can't really believe a bluff will work out for us and we certainly have some showdown value 'cas villain could have something dumb like A773.
