Default Re: tough AA spot with aces up....party 1000 6max....can u fold?

He limped pf and calls your raise. I have him on an overpair.
Maybe even a really big one like jj-kk and didn't want to scare out the blinds. Possible that he flops a set, but he probably wouldn't raise the flop. He is min raising to see where he stands with his pair. He is thinking that if you reraise, he can safely let go his pair. When you call, he still isn't sure if maybe you have ak or a pair, because you might have decided to see one more for his min raise. He puts out another tester on the turn, this time hefty enough to find out where you stand. Your call indicates strength, he knows it's no longer ak, but it's not too much strength. Normally, kings or aces may have raised here or even pushed.
His push on the river is not a move, he honestly thinks his hand is the best and he is not scared of a call. Because of your call on the turn, he probably wouldn't make this move with 88 or 1010. Feels like jacks or even more probably queens. Yes, possibly 99, and with his made set on the turn he can now bet big and have it hidden from his shown strength on the flop. But I think that's the only hand that beats you. Results?!?

I agree. The only thing I'll add is some advice: You should have cr on the turn. This way the decision is on him and not you. If you are beat then so be it but with that board I doubt you are beat. He folds and you pick up a nice pot or he calls your cr all in and you have big odds of turning over the winner.
