Do you guys call here? If you do, what are you doing on the river?

This is what notes I have on this player:
- He rarely raises and has a hard time folding a hand when he hits the board
- After the flop when he has something strong he starts betting 1/3 pot

Too less info how the hand was played preflop and on the flop. Blind are missing etc.
A full hand history would be great.

But:
With your equity of 87,xx % this is not only a call.

1743421125849

The required Equity for this call would be:

1743421230835
You meet this needed equity more than perfectly.
This is without ICM view only pure chip value.
After these calulations,
I would have pushed here, not only a slow playing and weak looking call.
A double up is much appreciated.
Nearly 90 % equity is good enough for risking the stack.
Even if he has AA, KK, AK if he calls the AI he is a luck gambler hoping to hit his 2 outer.
Do you think AT, TT has the need to bet here on this flop?
These hands are so strong they are waiting for a bet from the IP player,
if it goes check/check on the turn they will shove the river.
What do you think what his bet tells you, does he bet for value or protection oop.

if they bet value for 1/3 pot what do they bet pot with on this turn? What are they targeting for value with this size? What bluffs would they bet? What non full house hand would they bet for value? What do they do on river if we call? On the river what does a quick jam mean they have? What if they take their time to bet what do they have then?

By taking the time to answer these questions it will help you to increase your range reading skills for these difficult spots.

With this betting line of BB he has any T the remaining 7 any overpair like JJ+.

This is a tough spot.

But mathematical, you have to make this call even if you lose this hand.
