Here's the backstory. The hand prior to this one, villain had AA, re-raised preflop and then his flop bet folded two other players, but the Short stack moved all-in. Short stack had 89o on a J-9-5 rainbow, and hit runner runner straight.

Somebody wanna tell me what Villain's AI here means?

It usually means he has a pocket pair (lower than queens). Ocasionally he'll be on a draw. Easy call.

I think this is a definite call. I mean, can you really see him doing this with any hand that beats you? I think his most likely range is 77-TT, ATh+, KJh+.

Doesnt seem like too tough a decision.

The buyin might make a difference, but even without the backstory it looks like a pretty easy call. With the backstory it is even easier as villian is often quite tilted here.

In light of his aces being cracked the previous hand, I'd say that his all-in most likely means that he is on tilt and that your queens are good the overwhelming majority of the time.

I'd put him on an Ax flush draw and possibly a straight draw as well if he is on the loose side, maybe an Ah7h - I can't see him playing like this with a set... I think you have to call.

Of course you should call. Whenever your opponent makes a strange bet like this it generally means their hand isnt that strong, or else they tend to check raise.

If it were higher stakes, I'de swear it was a "Stop &amp; Go"

Hero calls, very quickly.

very easy call

Very few people are stupid enough (or bold enough) to play a flopped set, AA, KK, or flopped straight that way. You're ahead of everything except A/images/graemlins/heart.gifK/images/graemlins/heart.gif, and getting plenty good odds to call even then.

folding this is horrible. the open push on the flop makes this even easier than a C/R push
