Default Do we wanna make a hero call?

Villain is playing 23/13/2 and I'm playing TAG. I stacked villain earlier when he 3-betted in a button vs blinds situation w/ AKo. Flop was JT9ds and I had JJ and he bet/called flop (!). But I think he ain't doing such things very often, he was probably just steaming a bit from some badbeat and I think he has cooled down now.

Should we make the call or not?

Everest Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $2.00/$4.00 (HH Converter by Kreatief)

BB ($803.90) (Hero)
Button ($380.00)
SB ($46.65)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
<font color="#CC3333">Button raises to $14.00</font>, <font color="#666666">1 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $48.00</font>, Button calls $34.00,

Flop: A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ( $102 )
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $70.00</font>, Button calls $70.00,

Turn: 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] ( $242 )
Hero checks, Button checks,

River: 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] ( $242 )
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets $101.00</font>

Looks pretty terrible to call there, despite the odds. If he had an unlikely pure float on the flop then he'd bet the turn mostly, and why would he turn his hand into a bluff with whatever made hand he had on the flop when he could check behind? Looks like an obvious value-bet from him.

Looks like a valuebet and I can't really see what hands he decides to bluff with here.

Ya, I folded. What made me think about it, is that villain could perhaps be dumb enough to turn some of his pairs into a bluff and we have nice odds.

His bet cries for a call (from a lesser diamond).
Plus this is a very bad spot for Villain to bluff IMO.

Ditch it.

Raise more preflop since you're OOP. As played, just fold, you basically just beat a bluff.

Why is is that you have good odds? Screams value. Fold.
