Villain is 21/14/2.1 over 2150 hands with WTSD% of 35.

Can I actually find a fold somewhere during this hand? I don't see anything I'm beating other than JJ and I don't see him playing 88/99 like this. Seems to me I'm losing to a T or a higher pocket pair a huge amount of the time.

This is a very shitty spot but I don't think you can play this any other way. The flop is automatic and on the turn, the pot is so big that you cannot fold now that it's heads-up. He can still have 99, 88 (or a worse pair which is now counterfeited).

Maybe you can find a fold if the pot was 3-way on the turn. Now, I see no other way to play this.

Agree.

I´m guessing he had AA?
