HI, villain is reg. Stats: 29/22 3bet: 7, 3b bb/co: 7.
Note the bet sizes. If I call Turn, the opponent will have less than half the pot on the river.
What is your experience? Will the opponent have enough bluffs? Will the opponent ever have any bluffs?
Thanks!

Don't think you need to call this to be honest, you can call AQ, A9s, A3s, 99, AsXs and then some king high flush draws/combo draws should be enough, maybe not from a gto perspective but I'm not particularly interested in being completely balanced in this spot at 25nl when it's very likely you're up against a tight range of nuts and strong draws that also bets all of it's strong hands, rarely checking them thereby making it even stronger. Also having a jack kind of sucks because you block a lot of the bluffs here so I'd rather call an ace with worse absolute showdown value that doesn't block draws
In my opinion, you played the hand perfectly unless the BB is a total maniac, the only value hand you beat is AT. Also, consider folding preflop, but this is an exploitative play based upon the opponent. I would call preflop against a typical opponent preflop but I would make exploitative adjustments and fold preflop against a really tight player and I would 4 bet some small percentage of the time against a total aggro spewtard. But against the vast majority of the players at this limit, I think the way you played the hand is totally standard and fine.
