Facing river shove

Oppo was a bit stationy, had called a big flop 3bet and turn bet with an underpair a few hands previous.

I can't give him too much credit for an ace here, can I?

Would it be a+EV call?

EDIT: Failed at copy and pasting but oppo shoved the riverrrrrr

    looks like a nice table!

    I wish I could table select this well when taking shots :(

    -----------------

    What r ur reasons for cbetting? why do you think it's good? r u bluffing, or value betting?

    Will they fold Kx &/or Qx? 

    Do you put them all on KT? what else will call that you can beat?

    I knew wigancarl could call light pre, so could've very easily missed or maybe have a low pair

    Thought other oppo had a reasonable chance of hitting but that he'd miss enough times for it to be ok, i guess i'm just a donk :/

    Don't cbet these type of flops vs whales, you wait patiently for the times you get tp/overpair/set and extract.

    9's from the bb ain't easy to play

    call pre - look for a safe flop or maybe a set

    by raising pre your forced to c bet just in an attampt to take down pot

    when called - give up

    river - c/c reasonable size bet - oppo shoved = fold
    SIGH !

    100% check in BB for me, after that action just pretend you have pocket 2's and set-mine.

    As played got to check flop imo it hits their L/C range so hard, be amazed if that cbet ever got through longterm.

    River check, pray for tiny bet and just call.

    AFTER I have made the apparently bad cbet, when he shoves the river I am getting 1.76:1 on a call

    If he has an Ace less than 56.7% of the time it is the right call and I don't see him having it that often in this situation.

    How often do you think oppo has it here?
