trips deepish, donk shoves scary river

Villain 42/28, only ~100 hands so no real reads on his postflop tendencies, although he will call down light rather than raising weak hands. He called the flop 3bet and turn bets really fast so I felt like I was ahead there. Suck it up and cry pot odds or make the fold?

you dont beat anything regardless of pot odds.

I would only 3 bet the flop if I had a wild image or if I thought he was a total idiot. I fold the river.

You should practice some pocontroll on flop and just call. Take if from there.

flop and turn were value imo, maybe turn bet was a little large. (tenuous) reasons why one may wish to call the river: we split with worse Js, hearts missed, and the random donk factor! (a6o is the nuts?). clearly there's not much to hope for but nearly 4 to 1 isn't bad. looks like the general consensus is to fold though.
