Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

SB: 104.5 BB
Hero (BB): 123 BB
UTG: 109 BB
MP: 114 BB
CO: 145.5 BB
BTN: 135 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has A♥ 9♥

fold, fold, fold, BTN raises to 3 BB, fold, Hero calls 2 BB

Flop: (6.5 BB, 2 players) 7♥ 5♣ A♠
Hero checks, BTN bets 3.5 BB, Hero calls 3.5 BB

Turn: (13.5 BB, 2 players) 2♦
Hero checks, BTN bets 6.5 BB, Hero calls 6.5 BB

River: (26.5 BB, 2 players) 4♣
Hero checks, BTN bets 10 BB, Hero calls 10 BB

Villain is tight aggressive 15/3

I think preflop and flop standard, should I have fold this on the turn? Cause if I call the turn I cant fold the river.
How do you play this?

He is giving me 3,65:1 pot odds, if you place weaker Ax and pocket pairs to his hand you cannot fold it here.
If u place AK, AQ, AJ, AT maybe 77 55 to his hand why would u even call the turn? So thats why my question was to fold this OTT or call all 3 barell.

What are the ranges that you call against on the turn, but fold on the river?

the ranges we are discussing are a lot wider than you suggest.

how do you expect villain to play A6o, KQ, JT, 98s, 76s?

my point is, that there are plenty of hands, that would double barrel and give up the river.

so the standard line w your kind of holding is in fact to call, call, fold.

If he's a tag is he triple barreling his weaker PP's? If he has bluffs in his range the river is a bad card because 86s gets there, 34s got there on the turn. If you assume he is only betting his good Ax and better on the turn then we can fold, if you think he is capable of running a triple barrel with a weaker PP's that's a whole other assumption. It's hard to pick up tendancie's of how opponents play on the river because its not like pre-flop or flop where we get to see they're actions quite frequently since many hands make it to the flop but we don't always see frequent play from our opponents on the river because it doesn't always get to that street. So if we don't know much about our opponent we can't know for sure if they would triple barrel or give up on the river, although if you say he is tight its probably unlikely he triple barrel worse than your hand much of the time. I think the flop and turn call are fine and I would probably fold river because it seems value heavy, all the bluffs got there and alot of the weaker Ax have two pair which means we lose to a-lot of weaker Ax and all the higher ones.

Looks like villains PFR is only 3% and that's extreme tight. Especially when it's based on a decent sample of hands. With this in mind I would even consider to fold the turn with in mind villain has most likely a really tight range. Even from the button. Normally I would call villain down for sure.
