Default Re: AA raise the river?

This is a pretty obvious river raise. Putting him on a Q is basically impossible.

does it go from possible to extremely likely if you get 3bet?

Yep. Note that I did not say it was impossible he had a Q. I said it is impossible to put him on a Q. Those aren't the same thing.

No, I wouldn't fold to a 3 bet. I think they probably have the Q, but getting these odds you have to go with your read and hope he doesn't have it.

Default QTs....

.....is a hand I'll 3-bet from the BB against a potential pain in the ass TAG who is gonna come after my blind a lot. I may be ahead, and I now have initiative. Maybe it's wrong, but I do it.

CAP the river? LOL.

21/14/1.2 to me is SOMEWHAT TIGHT, VERY AGGRO, LITTLE BIT TRICKY.

i don't see how him having QTs or QT (less likely) is completely out of the question.

and please, why EVER cap on the river with a set on a 4 straight board?

IMO the river action here isn't that cruicial. I like the turn cap, but i guess that's a no brainer...

is the only interesting part.

On a side note by reading the stats again of 21/14/1.2 for me to believe that he has a Q here...I think he would have to have an aggression of at least 1.8-2.0. I can actually see why/how he played the Js like he did. I thinks Js are right after the AK or KK guess. QT or AQ is below even say TT. I just really don't see him having any Q hand he plays like this and I think his stats show that. 14/1.2 just isn't gonna 3 bet here out of position IMO without a higher aggression or higher PFR number. All just thoughts.

Put yourself in your opponent's shoes. It looks to him that you do not have a queen. You will usually call with either a better hand or worse hand if he holds a set. You will not bet if he checks with a worse hand. His bet is probably with a set given the betting and you can beat his set. I don't think he'd reraise preflop with QT, but he will with a big PP. Given the turn check-raise he must have a set or QT. I think a river raise, although risky, is profitable. If 3 bet I'd call on the river. I feel the critical point of this hand is the turn check-raise. Given the fact that he reraised preflop he must have a set. You can beat his set and therefore should raise on the river.
