What are your thoughts about villains range when he takes this line? I'm guessing 66, J9, AJ, KQ, maybe QQ? Can we call turn and river?

Not losing 65bb in a set over set spot (or whatever it is) would be criminal. If you assign ranges by enumerating the top X%, you will find a fold always, making it impossible to win a big pot. Folding turn is awful since you have 7+10 outs versus nuts on turn and river. I gave him a range of 100% value (down to KQ), and we still have a trivial turn call and an easy river call.

Notice he's not likely holding KK QQ here. He'd raised those pre most of the time, pretty always at NL5. He may hold two pairs, weaker set, sizing's also favorable

Turn is clear call since we have plenty of outs. Not too happy on the river but probably we should call vs this sizing

Thanks! Normally I call too much on various spots but in this spot I had a really bad feeling about this. I actually wasn't that afraid of sets, I was afraid of straights. Turns out he had KQ
