Villain dependent i think. The lunatic in me wants to turn this into a bluff.

This is one of those spots where we level ourselves and think villain will blast off when we look like KK, QQ, KT , QT and weak aces. Whether villain is capable of turning showdown value into a bluff is another thing and unlikely. Plus we block some natural bluffs.

I'd be on the brink of folding turn tbh, but it's close

River I fold vs by far most opponents

You're closer to bottom of range than to top of range though
But even if you weren't, calling a -EV spot isn't justified by how close to top of range you are

EDIT: Just solved it it's a pure river fold, mixed turn fold. Folding turn higher than 50% of the time too

Do we need 2 pairs to call here when our range looks capped?

It's definitely not capped, you're supposed to check flop a lot, and then call a bunch of strong hands to his bets,
On the river, about 40% of your range is 2p+

Bluff catching with 2 pair seems silly to me but idk

Also how am I 40% 2pair+??

I think I would XR sets, 2 pairs, KQ OTT at some freq

You're supposed to mostly call all of the nutted hands OTF

I suspect in most villain's eyes, we look capped by the river.

People love going crazy IP vs checks.

Not sure why we're giving up the betting lead. Is this standard?

In my player pool, and without any reads, I think you have to call here when this hand is played so passively.

So I just checked my database and have small sample of 20 hands where I was heads up and XC all 3 streets.

Villains were bluffing in 9/20
