Hey Everyone,
Let me explain my tough process street by street

Villain Stats: hands 157/ VIP 45/ PFR 28/ Fold To F Cbet 38/ Raise CBet 45(sample: 5/11) ;

Flop: I decided to Call this Raise because His Raise Cbet Stat is pretty High

Turn: I think there is no reason to Bet here. Maybe Bet for Protection? What do you think?

River: I think most of his Air bet this River after my Check-behind on the Turn.

How would you have played this Hand?

Given the flop is paired board, I would discard A3,53,63,32 in his check-raise ranges and put him on TT-55,76,A2,65,64,54,43.

Turn: Villain shows some weakness so I would remove 43,TT from his range. I don't see you need to bet here as your hand has showdown value.

River: Nasty card to complete obvious straight draw, would remove 55-99 and A2 from villain ranges given his pot size bet. This narrows the range to be 76,65,64,54 and I would fold at this spot.

If villain has complete air, I would expect he would bet flop and turn or 3 streets instead of flop and river as now he could only rep 65 I suppose.

Pot bet or the usual 'check raise' is an indication of a monster hand.We could find a fold on the river.

I don't have any problem with the way the hand was played. You're not going to ever get him to fold. The check on the turn was going to be a check-raise i believe. I think you both played it well and didn't overplay it.
