Villain is a 22/18/3.5(River 0.7)-Reg - not too much of a history. The onlay hand we played on that table together was AK=AK

I´m confused.

super thin value bet. he is repping nothing but he seems decent enough to now spew massively on the river and his river aggro is low enough that i'd give him the benefit of the doubt this time.

also, it looks like A7

I don't like your preflop call, and I strongly dislike your riverbet. Can't see him calling with worse like ever. Now you have to fold IMHO, don't think he gets to the river in this spot with air, and why would he turn his hand into a bluff now?

fwiw, I don´t think it´s a super thin VB. I´ve seen regs calling down in that situation with rather strange hands.

But I agree w you there, I don´t think he´s bluffing here ever - w/o history

I think it's pretty thin given the board texture, there are VERY few Ax combo's that you are ahead of now:
A4 A5 A6 A9 is all you beat.

I think river is an easy check behind. Now fold.

Not betting this river is a crime. It's Co vs Btn, you think Co is going to give that much respect? You have to think about what worse hands are calling river besides just A/x combo draws. And take in consideration that this is Co vs BTn where both oppoenents give little respect for each other.

[Panny1]

yeah, tbh I wouldn´t be surprised if he calls w 8x here - to all those who say a VB is too thin here.

I 3-bet preflop. I also probably don't be the river so big since I'm not sure there is much he is calling $240 with there. I definitely fold to this raise.

Seriously, I may not value bet as much as the guy did here, but I can see regs calling with worse given the right bet size. Find that bet size.
