Would be the villain capable of shoving KT, QT, JT, AT on the river? What do you think he has?

its an ugly spot where he has sets two pairs, like even 25 or 75 is possible. T on the turn doesent make things better.
Maybe he is a fish and has AT.

I dont find out, i fold the turn or river against 124 bb stack, it might be too tight. Im not sure tbh.
Im interested in what others think.

I think river fold is in order. When villains calls flop I’m thinking he has FD’s, overpairs, maybe some A6s, or some sets still in range. On turn when he raises I’m thinking he could have potentially turned a set with TT but his range also has flopped sets still and possibly FD’s. If I think villain is likely to barrel on most rivers I might fold turn but I understand the call given the pot odds. OTR I would fold because range I give him has many sets, we block his NFD bluffs aswell ( not that its super relevant but still something to think about). Maybe at 2nl they might have Tx but from my experience at 2nl I think with his line your going to be shown a set here a-lot, TT is the most likely imo.

Flush draw in villains range on the flop is a little bit less likely when you have the A♣: blocker in your hand. I would most likely Cbet flop and turn a little bit more as well for value and protection. I expect a unknown can still call a 55% pot bet or even more on NL2.
