I think you're on the right track.
I called and V showed QQ.
A terrible read but the thought behind was:
1) QQ/JJ/TT would have not limp/call pre.
2) Even if, I would expect some action either on the flop(bet) or turn(reraise) on this wet board.
3) same for AK, K9, 89
4) Therefore I put him on a missed draw AJd, ATd J9d..with little showdown value.
any thoughts? Is V's line normal?
