**Title should not be top two-should be top and bottom two**

Villain is Asian, late 20s/early 30s with a wide PF raising range. I've seen him raise IP with hands as weak as 24s after a couple of limpers. Post flop, he can be sticky OTF and fights for pots and is capable of raising with draws. He is also capable of making big laydowns and value betting thin. Other than being too loose PF, I would classify him as a competent player. He just won a big pot before this hand if that means anything.
Hero is Asian, late 30s, that looks like he's in his mid twenties. I have been playing somewhat tight and been up and down the whole session. I also won a big pot a few hands ago when I hit my flush OTR. Since that hand, I gave a few chips away after having to bet fold a few strong hands OTR. Villain probably thinks I'm a solid player that doesn't get out of line.

Hero checks, Villain bets 225, Hero?
Villain is representing JT OTT since it's highly unlikely that he has a set in his range given that he just limp called PF but would he do this with A2 or a pair and a FD, knowing that this flop should smack my range? If he did do this with two pair such as A2 or A
8
, would he bet the river? Would he turn a missed
draw into a bluff by representing the
flush? Could he be turning a two pair hand into a bluff? Am I leveling myself? Should I call?
