Default AQs UTG - 3-bet river?

Trying to find that fine of just the right amount of aggression. Might have been too weak on every street. No stats on villian yet.

Ultimate Bet 0.50/1 Hold'em (8 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is UTG with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP2 calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls.

Flop: (8.50 SB) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
BB checks, Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets</font>, Button calls, BB folds, Hero calls.

Turn: (5.75 BB) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises</font>, Button folds, Hero calls.

River: (9.75 BB) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises</font>, Hero ...???

I'd just call. I'm not 66% sure you're ahead.

I would call as well. It looks like MP2 hit their set.

I've always had trouble understanding this concept (re: 66% for 3-betting the river, etc). Can someone give me some help on this?

he's either calling or raising.

if he raises.. he probably has a better hand.. you spend 2 bets.
if he calls.. you usually have the best hand.. you gain 1.

spending 2 to win 1 is a 66% confidence venture.

Looks like you ran into a flopped set. 3-betting the river would be massive spewing. Just call it and next hand.

I'd just call this. He is either insane or he flopped a set.

Reasonable chance I checkraise and call a 3-bet, but since you bet, I call the raise.
