On this texture I probably fastplay my own flopped sets (99/QQ), with not much else being raised (exploiting that he should have a strong range here, and that there's a good chance he'll check raise turn way behind when I have a set). I may also fastplay KK/AQ looking to b/f turn (he would never x/r turn with worse than KK, IMO). So in my estimation, I'd be betting turn with a range of:
JTs (nuts) [4]
KQ (top two) [9]
AA (planning on raising brick turns) [6]
KJ [12]
KT [12]
So I'm definitely over-folding my range here, which means i'd need a strong reason for doing so. My guess is that he would screwplay all of his sets, which are 7 combos of hands. Against these, I've 4 outs out of 44, or 9.1% equity. I need 12.1% to continue. Against aces, I've a full 20.7% equity to continue. So we should determine the density that AA makes up of his range that we need to continue. S = set %.
0.091 * (S) + 0.207 * (1 - S) = 0.121
-0.116S + 0.207 = 0.121
-0.116S = -0.086
S = 0.741
So our inflection point is that if sets make up > 74% of his range, we must fold. If he elects to check raise AA 1/2 the time, then sets make up 75% of his range. Possibly factor in the times he's decided to take a stand "this hand", and it may become a call. If he only check raises AA for value 10%, we have a clear fold IMO, as the density of sets in his range is far too high.
