Presumably you have a better plan than just calling down then? You found yourself in a situation where you have no information except for the reads you have on V in general and having to potentially play for stacks on the river with 9s. I've seen an almost exact copy of this hand played out at my table yesterday. Guy called a small 3! OOP and kept calling down with 9s to be shown Ts at showdown (river went x/x)
Dunno about your games, but calling a 3! OOP with 9s against a reg is not gonna be a moneymaker unless we hit a set [in my games].
So it all hinges on my initial question: "
how light have you seen him 3bet before?"
