I've settled on this being a sometimes call sometimes fold depending on how I feel and what I think of him. I think either folding or calling here 100% is wrong.

 I probably fold since there's no reason to think you're folding the river if you're calling the flop with the cards that came.
Check out the new blog!!!

 Imo it's close so whether you call or fold, probably not a very big EV difference either way.
