Depends on the opponent somewhat but I probably think a sec and let it go after a check/call, check/raise.

Fold, you are repping an overpair and villian can easily put you AI on the river (with a 3/4 pot bet).

Your decision would be a lot harder with AA/KK, but the board fits a lot of drawing hands from 9T/56/78 and sets.

yea i agreed i folded. since you say i am representing an over pair do you suggest that I check the river there? Maybe I should have checked the turn after he calls my river bet? What do you think?

Hmmm.

If you can let TPGK go this easily short-handed you're asking to get pushed around all day long.

A significant problem is your turn bet. It's weak enough that you may have induced a small PP or even TPWK to try to push you off. I don't see any reason not to be 3/4 pot. For the sake of $3 you've made this really tough.

His raise is nothing, I'd call it and see if he'll make a decent river bet.
If I was feeling more adventurous I'd re-raise to see if he's really going to push or let me check-behind on the river.

I check behind turn and either call a river bet or make a value bet if he checks.
