Is this line okay?
No reads, limped KJs UTG, so perhaps a little fishy. He also seems to be playing passive in the hands he has played thus far.

I probably 3-bet turn because I think he usually would've bet flop with the hands that make better 2 pairs. On the river it's going to be hard for him to have a worse hand, so I think folding is probably fine.

this may imply that he is loose, but not necessarily a fish if he is a good post flop player.

As played, i think i bet the flop. This gives you loads of information against a passive player.
