I had the following notes on vilain:
bvl : xx, 1/5, x-110v125 (bluff) : 9873Ksff
- Dumb overbet raise bluff vs overbet when opponent has more nut flush in range
svo KQs: x down : 23764
- call KQs svo
- Passive with overcards on good board for range

So you've seen him Overbet bluff? I think I'd have a hard time folding personally.
Pre I'd go a little bigger maybe 12bb.
Do you have check Aces without a spade on the turn?
Do you have JT/T9s pure here?
Do you find a river raise with JJ/99?
Vs competent opponent I would be inclined to just try to call off pretty reasonably here and that's really about being aware of what your own range is in this situation.
If you never raise worse and you check JT/T9 OTT then it's an easy fold.
For someone like me who would pure raise 99 here and probably never have AA no spade I think I'd have to mainly call as JT/ T9 only 4 combos and I'd probably also have a couple of JJ combos.

Sorry forgot to translate the notes.
Note 1: He was bb vs lowjack, betted 1/5 on the turn after two checks on the flop on 9873 when the flush got there, and check raised overbet against an overbet on a 4 to a flush river as a bluff.
Note 2: he called KQs sb v btn and checked down a 23764r board

I don't remember the A of spade entering my tought process on the turn. I don't think I'm ever checking a T on the turn after betting so small on the flop. If I were to raise with JJ on the river, it would be way smaller. I'm always just calling with 99.
So our range is just AA and bluffs? So as he is getting 4:9 with 6 values we need 2.6 bluffs.
He then risks 120 to win 90 so we need call like 43%. Our range is 30% bluffs so we need call 85% of our AA combos. Given that AsAh is clearly worst combo I think we have a mandatory call.
spoiler: He had 99

I got to the river with a non-gto strategy. Vilain's river play was also probably not GTO. I don't think this is the right way to look at this
Particularly at these stakes even whales have a hard time randomly 3b jamming the river with random bluffs, kinda like how 4bet ranges are generally more ''obvious'' even from really aggro recs.
