there is absolutely no way you can know he doesnt have two pair or a set here, and then no way you can call this river

youre exactly right about your assessment of your own lay you donkey, make that lag style pay off!

It's true, nothing is 100%, but your tone is fairly ignorant. Conservatively estimating, i've played 200 hours with this particular villian. I've seen him with 100's of very strong hands on draw heavy boards. I have NEVER seen him make an underbet when he had 2 pair or better (and no reason to believe he was behind). It's just not this guys style so i'm almost certain he does not have a set or two pair (let's say at least 99%)....He also does not semibluff or lead out with less than top pair....Period....So he does not have a flush draw or some pair / draw combination.

you were speaking in absolutes and a self depracating manner

im not going to argue the self depracation, you asked for reinforcement

the only absolute is that nothing is absolute, and he could have mistyped or it could be a friend or he could be taking lessons from Ciaffone, WHO KNOWS?!?

i still hate how you played this hand

Take the context clues buddy, this is a live game. Unless my opponent has an identical twin brother i'm certain of who i'm playing against.
But wait, i forgot, there's no absolutes...Sorry

This the old guy, who says "just me and the best hand"?
If you dont think he bets anything but the straight and calls a bet on river with a pair of aces, then fine.
If you think he is gonna bet ONLY with something that beats u on river, why do u call.
P.S Not to sound rude or condescending, but posts like tiger_style's in this thread are one of the main reasons why we need a mod. I hope I am not out of place by saying this.

I doubted myself. The guy hesitated before he bet. I was getting 2-1. I'm a donkey. I shouldn't have.....Take you're pick
