$100 NL on UB. I've been at the table for about 20 mins and haven't played many hands. I've won small pot on the flop, that's all. My opponent hasn't done anything unusual. He seems to play a littlebit loose, but also passive. I have $110, he has me covered.

In MP I open-raise with [Kc]. Opponent in LP min reraises. I call. The two of us see a flop of
[Jc][9d].

I check, my opponent bets $2 into the $11 pot. I think of checkraising here, but I figured that if I wanted to take away this pot, it might be more convincing to do it on the turn. If a scarecard like a diamond hits, I can probably bluff him out. If he has AA, KK or AK his hand cannot stand a lot of heat.
So I call.

Turn: . I check. Opponent bets $5. I checkraise the pot.
My thinking: this must be a scarecard for my opponent. I still put him on a high pp or AK; a T is very unlikely for him, and a flush draw is possible but not very likely. My play is consistent with TT or maybe even JTs. I could also have a set.
Anyway, my opponent calls.

River: , putting out a flush and a boat. I consider throwing out another bet of, say, 1/3 of the pot, but I have a strong feeling my opponent is not going to fold and decide to save my chips. I check, opponent checks behind, showing 88.

Any thoughts? In hindsight a flop raise would have done it, but on the flop I thought a turn checkraise would have more credibility. What do you put your opponent on when he calls the turn? What does he put me on? (Obviously not a set or a straight, since he would have folded in the first case and value bet the river in the second case...)

agree with rdale. Find out right away if you can take it from him. He might have nothing but that board has many possibilities for a min reraiser preflop so you don't want him to catch. Do it while its cheap.
