I was genuinely unsure of what action to take on every single street of this hand and it's very possible I made the wrong decision on all of them
Villain is shaping up to be a tight reg: 20/16 over 277 hands. 4% 3bet. 4bet is 16% over a small sample (1/6)

My thought process:
- Preflop: Given villain's low 3bet numbers it feels like there's an argument for all 3 options. I quickly rule out folding as far too nitty. Jamming seems a bit like the opposite. I have position so elect to call.
- Flop: Kinda feels like a way ahead/way behind scenario (e.g. AA/KK or QQ/JJ). Villain should have all sorts of suited broadway in his range but I just don't think he does, so decided to check back and give him a chance to stab at it on the turn
- Turn: That's potentially a stab. I guess I can give him another opportunity to do that again on the river although it's going to be horrible if a J or Q hits and he goes big
- River: Wasn't expecting to face the jam. I'm torn here. These tighter guys don't often over-bet bluff jam. On the other hand what does he have? AA can't be too confident that they're still best. AK seems in a similar situation. I block KK. Does he even have any T's in his 4bet range? It's hard to put him on a bluff as well though. Do 10nl regs ever turn their QQ/JJ into a bluff here? That just leaves AQ/AJ....
