Hero has been playing at the table for 5 hours at this point and has around $1300, about average for the table. Pretty sure Hero is viewed as solid who is on the tighter side but is fairly aggressive (has tabled some Q9s, Q8s, J8s type of hands as both misses and hands that got there).
V1 is a young (early-mid 20's) asian male who seems to be an average reg. Bought in for the minimum ($500). and plays fairly tight pre, so definitely not one of the crazy LAG types. Right now he's playing around $800.
V2 is a middle aged white guy who is a decent reg.
One limp in EP. Folds to Hero in HJ, who decides to open 6

for $30. V2 in BU calls and V1 in SB calls as well. Limper folds.
Decided pre that I like to sometimes play this hand for image purposes / occasionally have some low suited cards in my range. I would probably fold 50% of the time and raise the other time. Additionally, BB was tight so more incentive to raise here.

Definitely some interesting flop action here. All things considered, a pretty good flop for our hand, and an average / slightly favorable flop for our entire range. I decide to check to put this particular hand into our check call range, but the check raise complicates things. Still, lots of equity and we block 66 so I think we're forced to call.

Hero thinks and checks.
Barring a 6 or 4 or club, one of the best cards in the deck. This further reduces his QT and TT combinations. I'm not sure if Villain picks up on this fact, and is therefore giving up on a lot of bluffs, but I see little reason to bet here. I can see merit in betting something like $120-$160 to deny equity, but I feel like my hand is in a great position to bluff catch.

So we get a brick river. I thought about it for a minute or two before making decision.
What do you guys think? Honestly I'm not sure if river is the most interesting spot in this hand. What do we think about betting turn small? What about calling the x/r on the flop? Does this hand play different if villain barrels turn for 2/3 - 3/4 pot, and then fire river?
