it looks like it does. You have no read apparently.

The river really looks like a fold but who knows in these games. When he doesn't cap the turn I want to call that river.

It's not as bad as it looks at 1st glance.

Call turn, B/F river. Villain has a set, trips, possibly even a FH.

Can anybody find a fold on the turn here?

Villain isn't capping because he's trying to trap Hero for two extra bets. He knows Hero will c-bet, and might even call a raise. TWIWP, fold river.

But villain isn't raising top pair on the flop?

And that river is a tough one to bet/fold.

Turn 3-bet is bad. Not because you don't have the best hand or anything, but because he is drawing dead a ton and the only way you can win more from these hands is by calling.

Knowing whether villain is passive or aggressive would help a lot here.

Vs. an unknown I don't really like the turn 3-bet. I just call and probably c/c the river.

Just call down from turn. On this board it is very likely either a jack or a bluff.

Couldn't villain be waiting for a safe turn card to raise his hand?
