what's more likely? that villain decides to play AA in this exact (and extremely bizzare) way? or, villain has AQ/KQ and is playing his hand in the exact way any tightish/bleh midstakes live player would against an aggro opponent?

[/ QUOTE ]

Come on, man. He's not saying AA is *more likely* than AQ/KQ, he's saying it's likely enough that 10% of the time (or so) Hero's hand is good. That's why he calls.

Obviously villain's hand containing a Q is more likely.

[/ QUOTE ]

Exactly. I certainly don't think the villian had AA or KK, but I thought it was worth remembering so that the next time i find myself with AA on a river that double-pairs the board, I might know when it could be a value-bet/fold for me. (The earlier actions would obviously be different, because none of us would ever get our AA to the river with this action.)

Your description of this player sure is heavy toward a fold. This is live poker after all.

After reading all the posts, and thinking about it myself. I think you have to call here. Getting 11:1 on winning the entire pot means he needs to have complete air here 8% of time. However, I think it is important here to also consider the slim chances he also has a J here as well. I think he could play 10-J or K-J the same way here. I have seen that play as well. It is less likely b/c of the way he played the flop. I think also how he interprets your play could influence his play against you on the flop as well.

In the end... it sucks but a call is in order.

Izmet would be disappointed, but I would fold because I figure his chances of having a Q are about 99% and I'm about 99% sure of the read.

Calling becomes +EV if hero thinks villain has a Q 91% of the time. Based on Andy's 99% read I think your right to fold, I'd say its closer to 92% which of course still doesn't make calling right.

It's a little more complicated than that because some of his range will be the other J which I chop with.
