Please help me to construct a range for my opponent here.

I think that after his flop call, I can rule out AA/KK and maybe even QQ because he would 3bet those hands. Some players might jam their sets and 2-pairs on that flop because of the heavy draw, but I think check/shove or pot sized bets are more common from fish in those spots. I could be up against AKs/AQs or ATs with diamonds, and I'm in better shape against those hands but it's not looking wonderful. If he has much Tx offsuit or 77 in there, things are much better for me.

So how would you go about this construction?

Hi Vaul,

What information do you have about him?

I doubt you can build a realistic range with 0 info here because villain can have anything from a strong overpair that he slowplaye to flopped nuts to sets that he doesn't know how to play.

Of course he can also have draws and some weak semibluffs.

But really you have to look at this hand like this: if you are behind you have some equity but not a great deal. If you are ahead you are generally not very far ahead. So it's not worth calling here for 50% pot odds.
