 -viillain in this hand is Soprano on stars, he is very tight and runs around 17/13/2.4
-his wtsd is also pretty low, 22%, he's not much of a hero caller in general
-In general I don't 3bet him very much, as he's tight and also doesn't call light preflop. I 3bet him pretty polarized, but mostly with air type hands but he doesn't know that
-last session I called him in the blinds vs his button and c/r the J high flop and he got it in with mid pair +FD and saw that I flatted AA pre
-this session I have raised him on a few flops and he has folded both
-is this an easy shove? Any other turn/river combo I'd be happy shoving, but now I feel like I only beat TT

 I would feel a lot better about it if he caught you bluffing instead of slow playing a big pair then value betting it. As played I think shoving is the lesser of the evils.

 I would c/f, I would never expect him to bluff you if you check and I don't see much value in betting since he is capable of making big folds. Unless your image is out of whack I'd say shoving is too thin.

 I'd bet $120 and fold to a shove.

wow such an ackward amount left on the river. I think the river is a c/fold. The times that you get more value from 10s-77 aren't enough vs the times he has JJ+. Your turn bet sizing is weird though. Why so small? Seems like you're never making it that small with a very strong hand since i don't think this is the kind of board you're going to be looking to induce a bluffraise from since it's so dry and if he does have an overpair there's no point 'protecting' and he's just gonna bluffcatch.
Family Cruise IMO

I like the call as opposed to 3 betting Preflop bc his range is pretty much 99-AA and AQs+ UTG. The 3 bet is a good play to define his hand on the flop as he will probably not invest the money with anything unpiared. After the Call I automatically narrow his range to 99-AA ( Ur ahead of 70% of his range) Turn. I really dont like the jack bc Im beat by pretty much 75% of his range now. I bet a little more on the turn and prepared to check fold or fold to any aggression. In the end I think u r beat. And looking at the turn

 if he knows ur capable of flatting AA pre then c/r this flop vs his UTG open is suicidal. checkcalling down is delicious on many turn/river combos
