Default 50nl: 66 deep stacked

Original raiser is pretty donkish/aggressive and short so I call in position. 3 bettor is 31/7.5/1.6 over 500. I've never seen him 3bet light, I think his range is QQ+ AK and maybe JJ and TT. We're deep, his range is small, he goes too far with overpairs/TPTK, and his 3 bet is too small so I call.

often enough to call???

[censored] calling. shove!!!!!!!!!!! if he has JJ so be it.

he probably never holds 22. and he probably pays off with KJ and AA

and i feel his range is wider then you think

He never has 22 or KJ here. He has QQ+ AK 95% of the time and 5% of the time JJ.

I don't think shoving is an option since I doubt he calls with anything I beat except AA.

Edit: The only other hand he has ever 3bet in 500 hands is AQo in a blind battle where the SB minraised him.

You mind explaining why? I can't see him calling QQ here so really we're only getting value from AK and AA. If you do bet the turn what do you do if you're checkraised?

QQ peels here again. if hes putting you on a jack on the flop then its likely hes still ahead.

i guess a call isnt that bad but it leaves so much money on the table. he could def call down with AK.

FWIW i still shove the river

So you don't have such a difficult decision on the river. Push.

AK and AA have more variants than the rest of his range that beats u . if c/r than i'm all in.

Now that I've given this hand a little more thought, a river call is mandatory given how it played out, but I'm still not sure that bet bet bet with no intention of folding to a raise is the best line when you consider his range preflop, the unlikelihood of him floating AK on the flop, and the unlikelihood that QQ calls another bet on the turn.

AK has to be severely discounted since I don't think he's floating it for such a large bet on the flop.

Edit: My image at the time is also very tight since the last 3-5 orbits I don't think I've really played a hand because I changed gears after stacking the guy to this Villain's left with 53s raised from the CO and he was trying to take shots at me.

I don't think this is AA/AK and the remote possibility he's calling down QQ so much more often than KK or JJ that this becomes ZOMG bet bet bet bet bet foolio like so many of you are saying.
