Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...I don't know. It's not entirely uncommon to see KA/KQ here. 888 is possible too from a passive player. And, your garden variety shyte - A6, 65, 67. I think that JJ/1010/99 actually checks here. That leaves hands which are making "pure bluffs," and players at this level don't really make bluffs with lower pocket pairs - though your check on the turn is a "good" reason for BB to do that. At 3:1, assuming you don't have a nitty image, go for it. But it's close and if there was something at the table telling me otherwise, I would fold here. Probably fold &gt; call. Just because it's a "weird" line doesn't mean his range makes a bluff logical here.
