Go ahead and snap fold. Villain probably had something like A9 and wasn't sure if he was ahead or behind on the flop.

Hi Ribbo, thanks for the assessments.

Do you don't think that some players could bet that way the river having a busted FD or an A with the FD (less problably the last one)? Even may be something like 9J with or without a draw could bet as a bluff.

Do you really snap fold against every kind of opponents? Why?

I'm asking because there are more combos of worse hands that could bet that river as a bluff, than A9 or AJ.

You raised preflop, bet flop, bet turn. He has every reason to believe you have at least an ace yourself. This is not a board for him to be bluffing in to you on when you could well have a full house yourself.
