I feel that he might pull the trigger here often.

What makes you think this? What makes you think it more likely that he'll pull the trigger (I assume you mean c/r with air?) than fold? Do you want him to fold a worse hand than yours? Do you want him to bluff a hand worse than yours? Do you think it's more likely that he'll bluff c/r the turn if you bet, or bluff bet the river if you check?

Enquiring minds want to know.

Edit in white below (Riku don't read until after you've responded):

<font color="white">Writing stuff like "I think that he might pull the trigger here often," is just a wishy-washy way of saying, "I'm scared." Stop being scared, it makes you play weak-tight. Villans with 3bb left in their stack are either ridiculously weak-tight or ridiculously loose; either way, it's not going to make a gigantic difference what you do. Fire one more time, if he folds he'd probably not have bluffed the river, anyway, if he raises you're going to call/call because he's shortstacked and it's not beyond 2:1 that you have the best hand.</font>
