villain: 18/15 - 70 hands

Mainly targeting 99-TT, 86s (JJ) 22 here with my bet. But if he is somewhat of a decent handreader he should realize that he is beat when I bet this small. Also my rather small bet, might induce bluffs from the overpairs?

But can I assume that a nl100 regular turns his overpairs into a bluff here and call, or that 22 might valueshove?

Or should I consider just overbetting to make my hand look like a bluff? It looks superbluffy and I have basically no 5x in my range when I play the hand this way, so he might herocall with the overpairs that he otherwise would've fold.

Thoughts?

The problem with answering this is, that it's 100% depending on opponent/history/reads/assumptions.

Personally I like the small bet because I don't expect an 18/15 to be a good handreader (if he was he'd play more hands preflop).
If he actually does read hands well he's probably still too nitty to shove as a bluff - again if he was a very good and aggressive player, he'd not play 18/15.
Therefore my assumption is that he is most likely not even considering to shove over the blockbet and he will call light.

Additional to that an overbet-shove looks extremely strong.
So if he actually happens to be a good aggro playe I still prefer the blockbet because imo he's more likely to make a "hero-bluff" than a herocall.
