What is he getting value from? He can't simultaneously be betting AK for value with a PSB while having FE with his drawing hands. If he has AK, he doesn't beat KQ and he is basically telling KJs/KTs
"hey you're beat - feel free to fold." I would expect to see a smaller 1/2 - 2/3 PSB with AK. Most decent players aren't calling naked draws for PSB's, certainly not a guy that is racking up and has no inclination to fire the occasional large river bluff.

Villain is described as a solid reg, not a nit. There is nothing terribly wrong with potting hands like AK or AsTs on the turn or opening them for 6x in a soft game. He can also have other ATs/AJs/Asxs at a lower frequency.
He certainly has them (AJs/ATs) but this comes down to the subjective read part. They are subtle differences, but I think he would open the AJs/ATs combos slightly lower than 6x. If you don't, that's fine and it's going to cause your range for him to differ from mine.
But if you are giving him those combos then you are resigning yourself to call pretty much any non-
or Broadway river. The thread also neglected to touch on the RIO situation that happened in this exact hand where we hit a better "two pair" OTR and then get slammed anyway.
