 -Villain in this hand is Pard01 on crypto and is definitely one of the better regs on the site
-He plays higher stakes pretty often, so he's certainly not scared money to make plays etc
-I've been owning him all day by playing passive against his aggressiveness. Standard type hand is him raising MP, me flatting in blinds and c/c his flop and turn barrels and him giving up on river and me winning
-I have also c/r'd his flop bets with air and he's given up on the spot
-He has either double barreled all his hands or just given up on flop in every hand we've played together today
-I don't think he thinks I'm floating or bluffing too much as I've always showed up with a hand against him this sesh
-I have no idea what his c/c range is at all, as he hasn't done it this session

I think that this would be a dumb line for him to take with a strong hand given history. I also think he probably expects you to keep applying pressure when he c/c 2 streets since he's been checking and giving up so much. Given all this I want to call but people hardly ever c/r the river as a bluff so I really don't know.

Fnord is an unknown quantity at this point

Insta-call because given the description he's capable of turning a made hand into a bluff here.

 So am I just a huge donk, and this is just a super standard spot?

Or is this just waaay too history/read dependent to comment on properly?

I think the history means he could be c/r-ing tons of stuff here and hence you have to call. Both ranges are way wider than usual.

We've played a lot together, and had tons against each other but he's never taken this line and he's almost never cr'd me on the river really. Especially not in a spot where he'd been calling down.

Not sure if that makes it more or less of a call. I actually ended up folding, but I feel like calling would have been better. Goddd I wish interpoker had a timebank, so I could actually think about things instead of just insta deciding after what feels like 5 seconds.
