Turn and river after flop check raise
£1/£2
Hero opens HJ £5 Ah6h (covers)
CO 3b to £12 (£400)
Hero calls
This player had not 3B much but from watching him play he seems pretty week and unsure what hes doing a lot
Flop Ac6d4c (£27)
Co £10
Hero £60
Co calls
Turn Jc (£147)
Hero checks
Co checks
This is a spot I get unsure on when we get a bad card on the turn and were OOP, Should we be betting this and for what sizing? If we have a flush here what sizing would we be going?
River 8d (£147)
Hero ??
After he checks back the turn I think I Should be betting river here as I should pretty much always have the best hand

Preflop is still a simple fold to the 3-bet, especially when you're OOP to a weak player who hasn't 3-bet much.
You made it so small pre and his raise is basically a min-raise, so I'm OK w/ the call. Flop is good, turn is good, check/evaluate the river. I'm probably calling a half pot bet or so. You could also throw out a blocking bet of $60 and fold to a raise. He might sigh-call w/ AQ or AK.
How does his being a "weak player" make your crappy A6 any easier to play, especially OOP? In fact, you flopped top 2pair and you were still confused about how to navigate the hand.
We beat passive, weak players by not making weak plays ourselves. One type of poker hubris is thinking one will easily be able to outplay an opponent while OOP.

Yeah I think my biggest regret in this hand was not betting the river after he checks as I should always be ahead here
