I doubt he's value betting the river with a T so that leaves a random scare card bluff, rivered QJ, or the value betting K. What are you repping? No flush or straight is c/ring the paired board that hard so he has to put you on TT/99 exactly to c/r with the full house after missing your bet on the turn. I don't think Kx folds as often as you like and the straight definitely doesn't. If you think he's bluffing the scare K often enough than just call, but I think raise is bad here.

I treat them the same when it comes to nearly any scare card situation.

it does take QJ out of that range and also it could be more likely he would VB a big ace
