Not too much info on Villain, only 40 hand. VPIP 59 PFR 18, fold to cbet 17.
Is my call on river correct? Could have done something different on the turn? Maybe bet more?

your flop bet 4way is to big imo.. more like half pot

Turn ~23 but doesnt matter much

river mhm you need to have the best hand ~30% to call here.. do you think hes donking Q9 and 98?

No, from the few hand i saw he seems passive, with Af<1.
At the time i thought he can bet AT,22, TT, maybe AQ and AK, as hands i beat.
He showed me KQo.

riv call is ok, he can probably have QJ and J9 at least that we beat for value, if not also worse jacks and sometimes whiffed draws.

If i called this river, i think i make the play Villain made profitable, giving him huge Implied Odds. Is that a valid point for folding? Can somebody elaborate on this pls?

passive fish don't donk with a missed draw in these spots.
Since he is a calling stations, he has KQ in his range here.

if he's gonna get excited about having 3 jacks he's probably going to raise turn. i think we get shown KQ almost every time here.
