That says it all imo. He's not pushing heavy action with jacks against a TAG. Tough beat man, it could have been kings just as easily, but three way I'm not paying to find out, even into a pot this big. Hero folds. I expect a lot to disagree with these pot odds though.

A call here is not out of the question at all. Players at these levels will try to bluff and represent AA when they have anything TT-QQ, AK, or AQ (you're a 75-80% favorite). Unless you have a solid read that your opponent is super-tight, I wouldn't lay this down. This hand had a similar line to yours...

sexyeva shows [ JH,JS ]
Hero shows [ KH,KS ]
sexyeva wins $201.

This one happened to hit the two outer, but I'll take KK vs JJ all-in preflop any day of the week.

and by similar, you mean completely different ... villain limp-re-raised all-in Preflop in your hand, whereas he opened the betting and 3-bet all-in Preflop in the one I posted
