Some players will check top set AA ott also.
I'm fine calling the flop bet for the cheap price, but folding turns unimproved. Old guys just aren't squeezing wide enough (not even AK somtimes).
Don't bother calling the river you're not good 15% of the time, bluffing doesn't seem profitable.

I went with johnny's line and called getting 6-1 or whatever and the villain rolled....
TT for the killlllllllllllllllllllllllll.
nh gg me.
Turns out the old guy was a certifiable maniac. The atrocities he took part in over the next 2.5 hours were a sight to be seen. Literally was 90/15.
Peeling with 45 in a raised pot on AK9 and got there. Peeling with 23 on AQ8 and got there. Raising a 4-flush board on the river with 2nd pair against a confirmed nit and getting bent because the nit didn't fold.
At the same time had zero hand-reading skills except when I was in the hand with him and he wouldn't put in $ after the flop
