AJo in a 4 bet pot hitting trips on the river

This seems like an easy fold pre-flop against a tight 3better like him. As played I would bet the flop for protection and thin value. Further I would most likely call the river, because it’s tough for him to check the flop and bet 2 times with better hands on the turn and river I think and he could have a missed draw as well.

This seems finely played on all streets; PF can generally be a 4-bet or call. I think the river is a fine fold; don't think he's really value shoving something like A9 and having the Jc in your hand blocks a fair # of his bluffing combos like KJcc.

I like it as played. Generally villain is not that tight 3 bettor.

True he could have air but that's pretty much just KJ combos(I also hold a club).I don't think players at these stakes turn Qx or something like JJ into a bluff often so that can be largely discounted too. As far as his value range that I beat goes it would be A2-AT that he probably 3 bets pretty rarely considering his 3 bet % and also probably folds to a 4 bet. So I feel considering all that I am rarely good on the river so it's a fold but Im interested why would you call maybe i'm missing something? I mean apart from what you said about checking the flop, I feel since its a 4 bet pot he would very often check his entire range OTF since he is OOP.
