V1 donks to see where he is at and V2 is mad cause V1 robbed his liquor store 4 years ago. this night he didnt even have the courtesy to buy his liquor in V2s shop so V2 is going to make a move on him. i call to let V2 try to bluff V1 and snap it off.
Do I know any of these V's... Just a better read from my angle if I do know these guys.
You quite possibly know V2. I can't remember his name, but he's baby-faced asian guy who (as mentioned above) owns a liqour store and is a reg in some of those crazy games down in Pueblo. He's a friend of Kevin (The Kevin who is a black guy with the diamond earring who never shuts up. Funny as hell, almost as funny as he thinks he is). They both know Jeremy, so likely you know them, at least by sight.

V1 is a random.
Kevin.. lol... Don't ever tell him you know me.
Because of the bolded and you have pears by the two... push the action. Raise flop, shove safe turns. I might even just make it $115 and get it in on all turns. These guys show up with a bunch of stuff. I have seen em shove all in pre flop for $300 blind. Get it all in ASAP.
Hero raises flop to $50. V1 flats (leaving $63 back). V2 folds. I know he respects my game, but I thought he'd call with any pair+gutter, and often with a bare gutter.
Pot: $160
Turn Qs (Board=AdQcJsQss, hero has As)
V1: Thinks for a few seconds and donks out AI
Hero: ????
I like the play you made, hate the turn card. Sucks when that happens to two pears.
Does Villain do this often enough as a "bluff" using the paired board as a scare card with a weak Ace now that he figures he's free-rolling?
I don't think I would fold here against an unknown like this guy getting almost 4:1. I see a lot of villains trying to slowplay trips here figuring he can get it in on river if you don't bet OTT. So call and probably expect a chop.
I think I was thrown by V's slow careful manner that didn't seem likely to go with trying to push me off a chop. Still, as y'all have said, pot demands a call.
Results
Spoiler:
Hero crying calls and tables hand. River Ts completes both flush and SDs, just to make me through up more. V picks up his cards, looks carefully at them, looks at the board, looks back at his cards and moves his lips, looks at the board one more time and slides his cards into the muck.
V goes to ATM to reload and plays a weird stabby and chasy, but not completely out of line, style that eliminates the idea that he was just on pure drunkin spazz here.
Just another example that ranges are always wider than I generally give credit for. The ONLY hand I can think of that fits his line is JT semi-bluffing the scare card. Any other thoughts on V's potential range?
