Spot on. I was watching a 100/200 game a few days ago, it was only 4 handed, however, a lot of betting like this hand, and when the one guy got raised by the other on the River(it got down to 2 on the Turn, usually 2-3 seeing the Flop) he just called with TP (Js) King kicker. His opponent had Ace hi, as in Air/Ace kicker.
When it gets down to the River and the pot is bloated, I don't raise and give credit to a 3bet as a worthy folding opportunity.

The river raise is maybe a very thin one or even a -Ev one.
To say that it doesnīt make sense is however wrong.
So many players thinks WTF and calls one more bet in this pot with a pair.
Your hand example doesnīt apply at all here.It is threehanded at the river and villain has to threebet against two opponents that shown strength at all streets and think that he can fold out both.
As said earlier I would go for the overcall at the table because I canīt fold to a 3-bet because I havenīt got the stomach.
However Iīm totally convinced that we are beat if we are 3-bet and that a raise has itīs merits if we donīt call a 3-bet.
