Villain is running 28/22/2.5 and running good.
He is very tricky, he bluffs quite often and may bluff very hugely.

SB ($3778.03)
BB ($898.50)
UTG ($809.62)
MP ($1080)
Hero ($3019.50)
Button ($237)

Preflop: Hero is CO with Q, A.
2 folds, Hero raises to $35, 1 fold, SB calls $30, 1 fold.

Flop: ($80) A, A, K (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $67, SB calls $67.

Turn: ($214) 8 (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $178, SB raises to $500, Hero calls $322.

River: ($1214) J (2 players)
SB bets $1100, Hero?

I would definately fold this against a more straighforforward player, but this one could easily bluffing for 200BB and the only real hand I may put him on is A8.

i think he expects you to call the river (or i think he expects to get looked up by your ace)

If the above statement is true, it just comes down to what level he/you are thinking on.

however, i myself am kind of a station, and once you show that you do make calldowns like these (or incapable of folding top pair) I think these people will not screw around with you as much in pots without the goods...But I really think your beat here. a "tricky" lag usually has it here in my experience.

OK, so he bluffs anytime a card that could possibly be a scare card comes.. Call. You could lose the hand but its +EV for sure IMO.

BTW I'm Ukrainian also but born in America.
