line check please....folding river ok, even though it's only AA, QQ and 55 that he most likely could have?

Interesting spot he jams 150bb on a bad river for him, and you block the nuts obviously.

What are your reads on Villain?

Read-less, river is a fold. Villain would likely give up with bluffs on river, or bet a smaller amount that offers good risk/reward (75-90BB). River shove seems like a high value hand looking to maximize a payoff against our perceived range of AJ+.

We might have more flushes than villain gives us credit for given its runner runner, so flushes, nut straight and perhaps a set could jam?

This is a little gross. I think I'm folding with the reasoning that the average villain will significantly underbluff this spot and that AA, QQ, KJhh is enough to call OTR.

Wouldn't really fault a call in theory because we have one of the best AQ combos -- we block the nuts and don't block the flush draw. If we call AK OTT then folding all AK combos and AQ combos OTR is pretty exploitable... but I just think this line is so value-heavy in practice that we can overfold and not feel too bad about it.

I'd 3bet bigger preflop and bigger on the flop. River is an easy call for a psb.
