Villain has crazy stats about 50/25 after a tiny sample.

He checked the flop and turn here LIGHTNING quick. Some might check a monster on that flop but most don't check both the flop and turn esp. when I check behind on the flop.

What do you think he's limp raising UTG, has he done this at all before? If you have a read that he folds to scary boards you can bluff here, but without that read I'd just check it down.

bla I don't like it, just don't get involved in weird spots like this with Your money, just check it down. Wait for some sets, str8 or something like that to get money in.

Limp-3Bet is often QQ+. In this situation could be KK or QQ scared of the board.

I think this is either a slowplayed AA, or a scared KK/QQ (that still will never fold to a bet). Just check and hope to hit a set.

When villains take this line its heavily skewed towards KK and AA. I am probably folding this pre flop as you do not have odds to set mine here. I guess as played I hope to get to show down, the times this is a scared KK are probably about the same as this is a slowplayed AA. With that said, you will almost definitely have to double barrel strong to hope he folds his KK, and thats assuming he is even capable of that.

Summary: Check behind, check river
