Default Re: KK hu, with no A on board

Just a note that I'm not saying any of the following is necessarily a correct way to play, but they are some possibilities, some more fanciful than others, given lack of any read.

In a HU situation some people won't cap with premium pairs hoping to be able to extract extra bets postflop. If he plays like that he could have AA, JJ or QQ. The JJ hand could simply call your c/r on the turn hoping to be able to get additional bets on the river and being afreaid that you might fold to a turn 3 bet.

QQ may not have 3 the turn fearing JJ, AA, KK.

Some of the same things can be said for AA.

He may also have figured, with some of the above (or possible some other set that he hit) that he would wait and see if the flush comes in before pushing more chips in.

But the most likely hands to be played this way are still AQ or QJ. AQ of spades is definitely a possibility here.
