line check with JJ

[Irishman07]

I've been running well at 1/2 so I took a shot at 2/4. How does this line look? Villain is 18/14 and seems to be a solid regular. He probably doesn't know much about me but I'm on another table with him and have been pretty aggressive. For what its worth, villain paused several seconds before betting river.

I think calling this turn will open us up to folding the best hand on the river too often. If I'm checking the flop to manipulate equities and pot size, I'd probably raise/fold this turn.

He looks like TT on the river.

Cold calls of 3bets from the blinds are usually big hands in my experience. As such, I'd fold river.
