WSOP 1000$ event 59: Great flop - dangerous turn - what would u have done

Hi all.

Would like to know how you would have played this hand mainly on the turn, but other advice also welcome.

Starting stack of the event was 3000 chips, we're at 3rd level (blinds 50/100). I got 2150 chips left.

Villain is a japanese girl that had an outstanding run of cards early on (AA twice, QQ, and a lucky K on the river to chop the pot when she had KJ vs my KQ ). She's got a big stack and became quite active because of that. She had clearly opened up her range from simply being tight earlier on.

I've been playing tight pretty much the whole time, altho I did get involve with her twice earlier on pots for more than 1000 chips, because she was opeining up her range.

I'm in the hijack seat with AJo. Folded to me and I raise to 250. BB (japanese girl) calls. we're heads up. Pot 550

Flop (550): AJ5 with 2 diamonds.
Action: She checks I bet 325, she calls.

Turn (1100): Q (not diamond)
Action: She bets into me 600. Pot is 1700, I got about 1600 left.

What would you do?
Thx.

Not fold. Not call. Put all of your chips in.

I did shove, just wanted to get some other opinions. She had kt for a straight. My outs on the river did not come and got busted. *Puke*
Thx for the feedback guys

I dont think id be worried about AQ there shes probably three betting AQ if shes widened her range as much as you say. I think its more likely that he has qj or like you said she had K 10. I prolly jam the turn and if she has K 10 its a cooler. tough spot when youre left with 15 bbs or so to sit and wait for a better spot i think.

I'm wondering if you actually saw enough of her cards to be sure her range widened.

When someone's running good, it can be deceptive. Their stack gets big. They play a lot of hands... and it seems like their range widened. It looks like they loosened up.
But have they really widened their range, or is it simply an abundance of premium hands..? Cause it doesn't look like that girl's streak has ended just yet..

The reason why I asked the question what you guys would have done and why I'm kinda "annoyed" is because she opened the door for me to fold, but didn't take it. Most ppl seem to agree tho that it's a hard fold. I gave it a minute or so, didn't insta shove but despite my thinking I ended up kinda mechanically moving my chips on the felt... Totally agree that being left here with 15 bb + emotional attachement to monster flop makes it difficult to fold

By the way KT was black, not diamonds (which would justify flop check-call) ......

Good point. The main reason why she seemed to have opened up was because she was invovled in 30-40% of the pots preflop. How good can someone run?

The only hand I clearly remember was her opening with KJoff from utg+2 and I called with KQ from the SB. board went 99x-K-K . She contibet the flop and I called because I sensed a standard conti bet kinda move. I bet into her on the turn and she called. We went all in on the river so she showed down KJ.
So my overall feeling was alrite on that hand (her range/the conti bet ...) + I think she overplayed KJ there a bit.
