Villian has standard TAG-stats, no specific reads so far.
Can I call his riverbet?
Is there any other line I should take?

Ugh. The c/c flop and turn check look like he wanted to crai the turn, but couldnt so now he bets big on the river with like TT or JJ. You probably have to fold Kings here since he could easily have Ak as well. You only beat AQ and QK.

Thanks for the comment, could you please explain your thoughts even a bit deeper since I don't really know why he is so strong here?

unless u have a read that he tends to bluff on a river when no strength was show on the turn u have to fold it. he could have wanted to c/r the turn but idk. i think u could have fired on the turn and checked the river but idk if that is what he wanted. i think in this spot we fold until we have abetter read i wouldnt be suprised to see AQ here though cause we look scared of the queen.

personally i fire again on the turn. because i dont want someone floating me that often on flops like this in a 3-b pot. i like to fire like 18ish on the turn to make him hae to call with a hand like KQ and catch up. and if he beats us at this point when he calls we still have 8 clean outs to make a hand 3 of which make a nut hand
