so here I'm 4betting as it's the first time he's 3betting me and I think his 3bet range is quite large here.

Jonte2007: 19/16/7.1 with 3bet 5.3%

when I actually hit, I just think I have a chance to hit a 5 outer as I can't see him flatting a 4bet oop with anything but KK/AA...

what do you think his 4bet calling range can be? I'm still simply amazed as to how many times I see people flatting 4bets, in or out of position - from what i've read doing this is just beyond stupid and baffles me. drop it or shove it - no?

anyway, what can I do?

 If I was going to 4-bet bluff, I'd probably pick a much worse hand with like no value (as the most likely result would be to get shoved on or get a fold, so the value won't matter a very high percent of the time).

His stats in general and 3-bet stats are pretty tight, so I'm not sure I'd even 4-bet at all in this spot. As played, I like how you played it and I'd also be looking for my 5 outer. I fold river as played.

 Your hand is a bluff catcher postflop so all you can do is c/f c/f c/f. If the board was a little different i might consider a call but not likely.
