Ok, so I'm mostly posting this got get into the habit of posting stuff here. This hand seems fairly easy to me afterwards when I studied it but it might just be bias due to results.

Villain is a tightish reg who seems a bit weird. I think he might just be new to the game or maybe just not very smart. Or it's just too small of a sample and he's just been doing weird stuff in the few hands I've seen. I think the raise pre and the call of the 3bet should be 100% standard vs a fish button and blinds that's not 3betting that much. On the flop I'm not sure if call or raise is standard but it'd seem to me that a call is much better since I almost never get it in as any kind of substantial favourite on this flop. Turn is a great card for me so I bet what I'd consider a fairly normal amount but I think the sizing is debatable. It's my standard though.

The river fuck's up my hand strength compared to his 3bet range which includes a ton of AA, Rundowns with kings that now beats me and a fair few rundowns that includes a Jack. Some of those might want to c/c turn since they feel they have enough equity to do that but not enough to bet/call. Dunno if that logic is sound, but I think a few people would do that some % of the time.

Ranges: My range would is probably not super strong here. I'd probably ship any NFD+pair, most two pairs (it's hard to flop without a draw to go with them on this board), any set and good combodraws on the flop. My range on turn is therefore anything strong enough to call a bet but not to raise and some very rare slowplay. Basically bad pair + draws, some two pairs that wanted to see a safe turn and weakish draws. He can probably figure that out. When he checks I don't know what he think I bet, which is unfortunate but I might be weighted to 2p+ and "airy" weak draws and that I'm weighted to weak hands since the 3 is unlikely to hit me. However, in that case he'd probably try to move me of it with a c/shove so he obviously gives me at least some kind of credit for a hand or he's slowplaying on the weirdest board ever. I don't think he'd ever c/c with two pair or better and he should be aware of that.

The river shove is a little bit more then 1/2 pot.

Stuff in favour of folding:

1. In his mind his shove might be to small to move me of a hand.
2. It looks so dumb and he has to be aware of that.
3. Most of his strong draws would probably bet/call turn which leaves fairly few combos of hands that is a, in his 3bet range, b, betting flop and c/c-ing turn and c, weak enough to turn into a bluff.

Stuff in favour of calling:

1. His value range should be very narrow and a big chunk of it would probably c/c some % of the time if he considers me bluffly (which he probably does to some degree).
2. It looks so dumb it has to be a bluff.
3. I think I might actually be towards the topish part of my range except for like J8 and some random Jacks considering how I can't have KJ or a set and I would probably check back a lot of jacks on the turn given that I really don't want to be c/shoved on with a weak pair and a draw or something like that.
4. Great pot odds.

Thoughts?

i think this is a fold, i dont see enough air hands that he can get to the river with and then bluff. Like you said most of his decent draws just bet call the turn, He would have to c/c the turn with a weak straight draw, weak flush draw or like AQQT and then just bluff and i think people dont play enough of those hands like that before the river, and then on the river dont bluff this card with any kind of frequency.
