13/12/9.0 over 93 hands, 3bet 9% fwiw.
Any comments about my turn check?
Should I raise river? Can I bluff raise it lightly when I come here without a good hand?

if you think hes a big station and will call this with a queen then you can raise but what hands with a queen in it call the flop? He is probably not calling a raise with JJ, TT or anything like that. I would just call here, maybe throwing in a min raise and folding to a 3 bet is good if he has shown some stationy tenancies in spots like this.

i dont really get why you would want to raise here at all. i question your hand reading if you think he makes a decent sized value bet here with many pocket pairs.

My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

I would try to get 3 streets of value instead of checking the turn.

which unimproved pocket pairs would you bet this river with, and what would you expect to get looked up by? TT and JJ seem like the only sane holdings to me that could be worse going for value, since they should expect us to have 9x sometimes, and it is very speculative to assume that these hands would be bet/calling the river.

I'm glad I called than.
But really, I couldn't make much out of villains river bet. I'm not sure a K is in his range, and besides that JJ/TT seems a bit too thin at 25NL as well.

Yeah, definitely just call. It's a situation where you should probably call even if you're a monster favorite against his betting range, because your hand sucks against his bet-calling range.
