Top pair vs 1/3 sizing on the river

What do you do vs this sizing on the river? It scared me more then allin to be honest. So I did not contemplate calling even though I could with the Kh...

Allin from my side OTR would be interesting too... If Ithink he folds an 8, which he never will :D

i like raising more pf when antes.
c/c flop/lead turn always interesting... i need to do some work on that. any vids or forum discussion ppl can recommend?
runout much better for BB range. believe it or not i think solvers advocate for checking behind sometimes here, ie on low connected board (which is counter intuitive).

You def have better hands to raise turn. Have in mind that you do not want to block his FD but and want to have his 2p hands domminated.
Anyway, river hits vilain`s range so hard that the chosen sizing is very good. Im not sure if hands suck as JXh needs to be in our calling range since we will have tons of 2p+ being on the BU. I will take a look later using PIO.
