not really,

you only beat total air and i cant see him calling preflop with that, esp given stack sizes

Ax high prob will check it down, any pair will too hoping that you have A high and anything else (AA, any K, flush, etc) knows you have A high or something very marginal and is maybe looking for you to make a hero call.

i just dont see what he's calling with preflop that isn't happy to check down with

Thing is that he's playing 40/25 and is most likely a retard, they don't think.

yup, i call here too. He's missed his AQ or w/e so much here and decides to bluff you off. Only hand I'd be worried about is like QJ or something that decides to bluff, but I'm not too worried.

Haha maybe...

I just had a feeling that he was empty, was something with the timing on his checks and bets - kinda hard to explain.

why would AQ or QJ turn their hand into a bluff with half decent showdown value?

i know hero looks like he whiffed that flop or has something exactly like he is representing (QQ,TT etc) but most donks with 1/3 stacks aren't good enough to value shove QJ in this spot.

A 40/25 may get a hand once in a while. Doesnt mean he wont get a hand.
