Villian Stats (VPIP/PFR/AF): 12/12/100
Interested in thoughts on how I played this and the read I had. Small sample size but figured villain as very tight aggressive. On a bad day I am a lazy reader when under pressure and so am trying to improve in that area.

I figure he is raising pre flop there with at most 10% of starting hands. Maybe pocket pairs down to about 77, all the A, K & Q combos, maybe Ax down to A9s and AJo. QJs too perhaps.
His C bet was pretty standard and didn't give much away. But I raised his bet on the flop for a few reasons: a) hoping to get at least one of the them to fold out, b) my weak kicker, c) value for when I'm ahead.
At the time I felt the 6c on the turn fell outside his range and did not improve his hand. I called here thinking I am ahead more often than not, beating his range at worst 50% of the time. I feel reasonably pot committed at this point and will happily get it in on the river unless a really scary card appears (a diamond to complete the flush draw would not be much fun, and any card 10+ likely helps him more than me).
The 8s on the river hits such a tiny fraction of his range, and I didn't get the impression he has been semi bluffing with 88. The shove therefore looks like it is trying to push me off so I don't hesitate to call it.
So... how's that read or am I bananas?
