Default Re: AA--too aggro on river?

I like the river 3-bet. But I hate when he caps it. I wonder if anyone has the discipline (or stupidity?) to 3-bet a river and fold to a cap. For some crazy reason it seems right here, since the times someone caps this river with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] or less are so minimal.

Any line that involves folding in this hand is pretty lame, though, so I'm not advocating 3-betting the river and folding to the cap. But I can see how some perfect poker robot could tell me that's the most +EV thing to do and me not being able to argue against said robot. I guess he has 99. Cry tears, call the river cap, and shrug.

It's just that he has 99 so rarely here that you miss a lot of bets by not 3-betting a river that will so often get called by a worse hand.
