Call river with 44 (on board), Ace Kicker v. strength in 9.75 BB pot?

Only played 20 hands with Villain. 23.1/0/1.29. Seemed like a reasonable player.

Seems like a sLPP to me (for what stats are worth after 20 hands). His flop raise means he has something, here, but you're getting 11:1 (maybe 12, if MP3 sticks around) so call to see the turn.

When you're not improved on the turn I'd check/fold. Even assuming you're behind to just a pair (which I think is a stretch against somebody who looks this passive), your odds are razor-thin calling to 6 full outs, and I think you have to discount those outs for fear of reverse-domination, putting you on the wrong side of the odds.
