I would describe villain as a 'thinking donk'. He's pretty bad, overly loose, open limps and stuff like that, but he does try to put people on hands and doesn't neccesarily just give away money.

I thought the J should be a scare card for his range, he should percieve me as solid from previous sessions, even though I’ve been more active this time around (I've raised the last 3-4 pots). I thought he could easily be getting stubborn with a middle pair on the first two streets, that he would find a fold with when I fired this particular river. I also thought there was some chance he would fold a 9, although I wasn’t banking on it, it could happen. Finally, on a draw heavy board like this there are a lot of whiffed draws that could be beating T high.

the title made me lol and think it was abad idea, ok now time to look at the hand.

edit: I'm confused by the order, I guess this isn't terrible, good for metagame if you get called/don't normally bluff.

I must say this villain is impressing me with his c/cing from the BN, I don't like it vs any sort of donk really, they are capable of over slow playing and making all sorts of loose calls on the river.
