One thing for sure is that the close to potsize bet on the turn is strong.
Most of the time it will be followed by a big bet on the river, too.
If the river was a brick card (safe card) would you call a shove on the river?

I think this is played fine. If I calculated it correctly on the fly there is only 70cents -> 1/3.7 pot bet left on the river so I'd definitely call any blank. I think on the turn players can find enough bluffs and even weaker value to make this a rather clear call with JJ.

Datapoint 1: villain 3bets vs UTG: underbluffed at microstakes

Datapoint 2: villain 3bets 10.5 bbs IP: more value heavy

Datapoint 3: Rainbow board texture on the turn, way less bluffs

Datapoint 4: villain bombs the turn with a pot size bet of 40bb

Datapoint 5: your range is uncapped

This is close, villain could definitely have TT, but I would fold the turn at 2NL. In close spots like this, I have 2 other arguments for folding: rake, and preventing yourself from tilt when facing a close decision in a big pot.

If the board was just slightly smaller [654r, 543r] I would consider leading this hand for 1/4 pot OTF a decent chunk of the time. Might even do it exploitatively on this board against some weak regs as well. Just a random thought that popped into my head when I saw this hand. Nothing else here. Carry on.
