why is this a fold here? is this a spot where its likely he was flatting each street because he was super strong and wanted to let you build pot before jamming river? wouldn't he 3bet QQ JJ TT AK pre? is he really calling two streets with k9?

this seems like a very disciplined fold against a reg that never shoves 2 pair

shouldn't villain be 3betting most of his range that beats hero here? not arguing that it is a call, just curious how you find a fold - like you said, disciplined. i'm retarded and would not take time to think much and probably insta click call and lose a stack, as that 10 is obviously the best card for us. it also seems like a spot that would be tough for him to bluff

hero's barreling range here is incredibly strong -> villain will not raise 2 pair for value
villain has almost no hands he can turn into a bluff on the river and even for the few combos he can turn into a bluff, he will be very unlikely to do so as hero's betting range is so strong

surprisingly easy fold (also a good spot in villains shoes to turn some combos of AJs/KQo into a bluff vs more sophisticated opponents)

JJ should be in flatting range for sure preflop most of the time and QQ a good amount too depending on the blinds no?

feels like 22 lol
