Fold.

Call if you want to lose to KQ.

Does the nuts just open shove the river for 2x pot here?

Its actually a very good time for the nuts to shove. That ace puts a lot of 2 pairs on the board.

Probably KQ of spades. This is a real ugly spot to river two pair. I don't see how you can call the river or how you can play it any differently before it, so as to avoid this gross situation. Unless you know villain will do dumb $hit in this spot, I don't see any way to call. This is a KQ of spades more often than not. Could even be a slowplayed set.
