I call this. He may be floating with 99,tens, Jacks, or a worse Q and trying to push you off the best hand. I expect he would raise the flop with AQ,KK,AA. Flush draw missed, too.

fold i think. most people dont float in rr pots, although id imagine the deeper games play somewhat different than ub does. i think id give up this hand since we basically have a bluff catcher, which kind of defeats the purpose of rring it in the first place.

I would bet out again on the turn.
there are some players who will Raise/RR light on the flop/PF but will play pretty straight forward on the later streets. Assuming this guy has the capacity to bluff the big streets (which he almost certainly does given your description) It's hard for me to put him on a hand that you lose to.
It's obviously a huge bet, but I think a call is right (although it does feel a bit dirty).
Again, I would only check on the turn/river if you plan on calling his bets (which you probably did until he shoved them all in there). Nothing came on the later streets that would take away the feeling that you're best.

Call, you have underrepped your hand and got him to donk off his stack. Of course sometimes he will have a 2 here [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

The deep games are more aggressive, but I don't want to stack here.

I started off to say call the river, and truth be told, I'd likely make the call in a short, aggressive game, but looking at it again, I'm not too comfortable with it. Unless villain really overvalues his one pair hands, your hand is likely to be a bluff catcher. Also, you've been very aggro, and are now slowing down, so he's got to take that into account as well. While you've underrepped your hand to some extent, he's still got to figure that you've got something since you clearly seem to want to get to showdown given your flop and turn line, and he's not getting anything from you if you were on a draw. So, if he's got something marginal that TP beats, I just figure him to check behind.

I would say if he pushed as a bluff, it's a ballsy bluff, but you don't have the odds to call it, IMO. I admit this thinking could be way too weak/tight, but I'm just having a hard time seeing un underpair or top pair with a medium kicker playing it this way.
