Limited info on villain (Zoom)... He is probably a reg (playing 4 tables) and has preflop stats of 27/20 with a 

3bet of 4% over 120 hands. Country is Chinese. A country read I would use in this case is assuming villain is 

less bluffy than most guys. Have not seen any real showdowns. Given how we get to river, I wasn't sure 

about my decision. Given our absolute hand strength and how we 'slowplayed' 2 streets, we may have to call 

this hand. However, I just don't think a reg like this just bluffs off here considering I should have most of the 

possible boats in my range. What do you do here? Also with given info, would you guys play flop and turn 

differently?

first of all, with this tight of 3bet% I would not expect too many JJxx\88xx, or QQ** hands on his range. there're decent number of 7x, like AKj7ss, 789Tds,7766ds maybe.

I don't think that 'we have top of our range - so easy call' applies here.

If you overall considering him tight it could be a fold (also I would think of shoving ott, (for protecting our hand); 

also, a question you should ask yourself - could he think of you as one who would peel two streets w\ J+fd or so, or you mostly folding those ott.

with info you've given its really close, both call and fold has merit, and for me its comes down to the way you treat sb. (I'm assuming he never value\bluff shove OP on the river, so value range is J7,jj,qq, mb 75 and A7)
