Top Pair getting raised by tight player
V is 17 / 12 / 4 over 107 hands.
On the flop I think V can x/r a ton of draws here. Stats are a bit tight but I think the sample size is too small to justify a fold here.
On this turn I am still ahead of all V's draws. I also pick up some straight equity if I am behind. Still I don't like calling here if I am going to fold to a river jam. Maybe turn is the best time to fold?

The top pair with a draw is too strong to fold.
While we might fold to a river shove if we don't improve, it's worth noting that opponents only shove about 48% of the time.
Plus, when they check, we often win the pot.
X/R-B line:
yea way too strong to fold turn, and happy to fold if villain jams/bets big on a blank river.
Just call.
