Villain is 37/10/2.57 No river aggression.

The only big pot I saw him in was with me and another guy where he limped with 34o in LP and I checked BB w/34s (spades) we both flopped the bottom straight with the 3rd guy flopping a set. I turned the flush but check called down. Villain just kept betting and betting whilst I just kept calling. Should have raised and got it all in but I was afraid of higher flush but thats another hand.

Anyway, when he push the river I found it hard to believe he had an ace but more like a set or a weird straight hand. What do you think? Fold this river push or call the donk down?

You must have had a reason to think he was full of crap to call the turn so stick with your read I guess...personally I would fold the turn against this player.

Genitruc is an unknown quantity at this point
I think a fold vs this type of player will save you money in this situation in the long run. I'd actually just fold the turn if I were in your spot.
when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

Hi guys,

Thanks for the comments. Much appreciated.

FWIW I did fold the river but I am curious to a couple of you saying you fold to the turn min-raise. Would AK/AQ/AJ and possibly even a lower ace, considering he is quite loose pre-flop, not be in his range a lot here? In my mind once he pushed the river these hands were out of his range but on the turn they could still be in his range couldn't they?

I just feel it is a bit weak to fold to a raise with TPTK at these levels. I have seen AT play like this, but not from this particular player.
