Default Regular 2+2er makes great value bet against me

Villain is a regular here. I of course cap, because I believe my hand is a fave over his 3 betting range. I don't like that Jack on the turn, I suspect Villain didn't bet here, because I'm capable of a screw play here. When he checks, I put him on something like AK, AQ, AT, KQ, KTs, maybe A7, 55, 44, 33. When I check the river, my hand might as well be face up and I know that he knows this, but I still can't put him on a specific hand.

When he bets, I think he is value betting a weak pair or AK, or knows he can't win an SD with his AT, KQ etc. and sees a good opportunity to bluff, so I call to see what the hell's going here.

Nicely played.

Anyway, who plays this different than I do? Is this a spot where a check-raise bluff can work? I thought about it. Who folds river?
