He doesn't fold to a lot of 3bets so he prob has QJs+ as far as queens. He may donk some spade draws bc it will put you in a tough spot with every thing but a Q right?I suspect he may have KK and spades enough here to call and eval river card/action. Sucks we have the As... this might be a fold vs a 14/10 the more I think about it.Yeah I think that although his range on the flop is wide his action here is pretty indicative of strength and I would advise moving on to the next hand.Also, 500nl... 2/5 online, eh?

Yeah, agree with James that it might be a reluctant fold since we have the As. There are some hands we beat like 7d6d and TT though. Probably cry folding...though I guess we can cry call.

Yeah seems odd to only have 200NL and 500NL zoom.

If we crying call we have to fold any river he bets even if it's a brick?Seems a bit crazy for him to bet for value here because what am I going to call with? But it also seems strange to bluff/semi bluff here because what does he really have to do that with? I was mucho confused at that point.

Yeah, the river issue is probably a portion of the reason I lean fold on the turn.Well, I rarely donk, but it's not a crazy donk from a set that he c/ced or a queen. I think it's actually kind of savvy and I might do it occasionally, because it has the effect of confusing you...and when people are confused, they typically call. I think he could easily be worried that you'll check back the turn with a hand like you have...while he might bet to make sure he tries to get two streets.
