ACR 25 NL - Fold Top 2 on River when Flush and Straight Come in?

Don't have much history with villain, although this session they had VPIP >35. Is folding the river here standard? Feels bad folding but I think villain could easily have JT and plenty of flushes. Thoughts?

good you're thinking what value hands he has, now ask yourself what can he bluff?


Js9s or Ts9s, although maybe he'd raise those on turn? Ks9s also?


He's not afraid of the king, the two Queens or the ace. You filtered his hands plenty. It's not fun but probably a good fold against your average player


Line is probably underbluffed, so fold is probably good. I would consider checking turn though, because you keep a lot of junk in that will call a river bet or start bluffing. You could actually block bet this river to get called by AJ and AT sometimes or even some Kx.
