Villian has a wide pre-flop raise range (or I rationalize overplaying JJ). This is the first time I've seen him cap which got my attention. Is it weak tight to put him on AA, KK, QQ, AKs here?

Well, since I got myself so involved on pre-flop, I was planning to call down unless I see an overcard.
So 2h on the turn => call.
River A => fold.

Not a lot of respect for villian's first raise, but I'm thinking maybe too much for the cap.

prreflop was great.
anything less is really weak passive

let him have AK offsuit as well, then calling down is more guilt free.

I'd fold river to an Ace, as well, if turn was 2 :heart.

Thanks for your thoughts.

I think I strayed over the to aggro side of late and am trying to find the right balance point. I am concerned about swinging too much to the passive side as I muddle along.
