CO: $10.96 (109.6 bb)
BTN: $18.37 (183.7 bb)
Hero (SB): $10 (100 bb)
BB: $13.40 (134 bb)
MP: $9.35 (93.5 bb)
BTN is running 16/6/0 after 50 hands.
BB is running 66/11/0 after 100 hands
Preflop: Hero is SB with Th Ts
2 folds, BTN raises to $0.35, Hero calls $0.30, BB calls $0.25
Flop: ($1.05) 5s Jh Td (3 players)
Hero checks, BB checks, BTN bets $0.88, Hero calls $0.88, BB calls $0.88
Decided just calling here was better to allow the whale to come along, this could be very wrong though.
Turn: ($3.69) 8s (3 players)
Hero checks, BB checks, BTN bets $2.04, Hero calls $2.04, BB folds
Just called again for the same reason as flop, but with the whale folding it makes the river tough.
River: ($7.77) Jd (2 players)
Really no idea whether it's better to lead out here or to check to him. I know not raising previously put me into this tough spot, but it was a weird hand with a passive calling station behind me.
Final Board: 5s Jh Td 8s Jd

Feel like when he donks a dry flop and then checks the turn he usually just has air, so I didn't see much value in betting.
River: ($1.89) Ts (2 players)
BB bets $0.94, Hero raises to $3.50, BB raises to $19.57 and is all-in
I figured this hand is a monster vs. someone this fishy so I raised for value. Also in the previous hand he shoved river vs. me where I ended up folding. I don't see what sets he could have that donk flop and check turn. Is this just an easy fold vs. a passive fish?

Don't like 3 betting KQo OOP vs. someone that isn't calling 3 bets a crazy high amount at 10NL. On flop all you're beating is an ambitious JxJd when he calls, and on the turn he eliminates this from his range. Agree with x/c flop and x/f turn.

As played I think turn is an easy fold. When is he ever raising AQ/AK on turn without the nut flush draw. The only hands I could see him doing this with that you're ahead of is KcTc, but I still think you would have heard about that on the flop.

Haha yeah it does, I probably should have said "some rare crazy donkey spew history"

When you bet so small on the turn and then blast it on the river, you're pretty much telling him you have the nuts if he's a competent player. Vs. this guy I think you're getting the money in no matter what so it doesn't really matter though. Really don't like it though, unless you have a lot of history with him and have a certain dynamic.
Thanks everyone! Really helps to hear other peoples thoughts that help clear up my thought process leaks. What I mean was checking turn to induce a river bluff, as at this limit a very common line for fish to bluff with is bet/check/bet. My plan wasn't to raise until I hit the 2 pair. I did end up leveling myself into a call because of him doing this the previous hand to me. He had 89o if anyone would like to know.
