You should fold to the pf3b. It's quite bizarre, imo, to think that folding AQo is similar to folding 99 or TT in this spot.
As played call river.
I check the turn back to leave my opponent bluffing range intact for a river bluff, also, i dont like to think about scary cards rather than cards that match or not match my opponent range. The river is a card that complete a backdoor flush on a check-check turn, but even if it was a card that complete a front door flush on a bet flop bet turn, is undeniable that is not to be called a scary card rather a card that increase significantly my opponent value range rather than his bluff range. In this instance i very well might have a flush myself so considering a flush card scary is a narrow view of the matter IN MY OPINION.
In this case i came to the conclusion that his river bet is more towards a "hidden tricky" value hand played with a weird line like AK KK (turn chekc on nuts not really weird after all), some sort of miracle river boat and in addiction to all those, a runner-runner flush with holdings like J10, 87, 54 suited that make perfect sense with the line taken by V checking the turn planning to call a bry and realize his equity with his flush draw.
All in all i wound have called around 60% of the time on a brick river, less likely if the river is something that might connect well with his range (prob around 40% of the time i would have called) and if check to me make a value bet for him to hero call me with Ax of even QQ or JJ at times.
Im really sorry to say this but i also disagree when player say: HERE I CALL or HERE I FOLD because u never know when the V is picking up 72 and want to win the pot at all cost. I think better approach is go something like: HERE I CALL/FOLD MOST OF THE TIME... But is just my approach!!!
