50NL, 100bb deep, 4th hand at table
Folded to me in CO and I make it 4bbs with AA
Unknown with 250bbs in BB calls
Flop is K73r, opponent c/calls 7bb bet
Turn is K completing the rainbow, opponent checks and I check behind
River is a Jack and opponent pots
Am I fine to just turbomuck here?

I'd play it the same and call more often on the river then fold. Timing and any reads are relevant to that. I feel like your gonna induce more bluffs by taking that line and there's really not a lot of value in betting the turn without different reads.

Thanks for the responses guys, allow me to elaborate a bit:
My first instinct was to call, but then I realised that I only really beat a bluff, and in order for villain to bluff on such a dry board, villain would have to do one of the following:
a) Turn 44-TT into a bluff. I really can't see a 50NLer doing that. (I also can't see him vbetting thinly).
b) Have c/called me OOP with the intention of bluffing me later. Surely if villain wanted to defend himself against aggression he'd c/r flop more often than float OOP?
I asked myself whether villain was doing a) or b) more than 1/3 of the time, and the answer felt like a no.
Am I missing something/overthinking this? I do have AA in a small raised pot..

I think it's definitely a river fold as played but I definitely would have bet the turn. Not to save yourself the drama as Vi suggested though. Against an unknown I bet turn to get loose calls with PPs simply because I believe there's more value in it than checking behind the turn and betting the river if checked to. And yes, it does save you a tough river decision if he raises the turn too I suppose.

Imo it's very unlikely that an underpair is calling more often to a river bet than a turn bet. The bet-check-bet line on dry boards is still considered to be stronger than bet-bet by most.
Would you be barreling with air?
