Villain stats:

What's the standard play on the river? Bet/call? Bet/fold? check/fold? check/call? I opted to call because I expect to see AKss AQss AJss here. I don't see him play AA,KK this way, same for TT. Only AK-AJhh beat me here imo.

What to do on the turn if we got raised? Or on the flop when raised? I end up stacking doubting myself a lot with overpairs when getting raised in 3bet pots.

Greetings.

I think we should rather call preflop. As played, I think that the standard river line would be check/folding. I can't see alot of worse hands in his range that are betting the river.

I think that, generally, KK+ and sets would play like this on the river.

Fold in both of the cases. In this hand you got lucky to run into the only hand that is weaker than your and will have showdown value.

I agree that it is better to call preflop. If you got raised you have an easy fold. River is x/f.
