It felt like a fishy call, but I could see a variety of hands making that smallish bet on the river, including small pocket pairs (88 ish), missed big cards (AK/AT), as well as made hands like KQ, AJ, QJ, etc. But getting 4.5:1 I didn't want to let a position bluff get me out so easily. As far as stack concerns go, I'd have 750 if I folded and 550 if I called and lost, but 1700 if I won.
Analysis on all streets welcome. But FWIW I usually raise TT (and JJ) to 120 or 150 preflop here, but just felt like 3 BBs this time.
