A very bizarre spot on the river

Opponent is hyper aggressive and prone to over-betting. He's my spot at the table but the huge overbet on the river just seems bizarre. I count it down and can't see any way to fold.

I've seen this type of river over-shove from advanced players figuring they only need to get called once every blue moon for it to be the most profitable play.



Poker Stars $0.10/$0.25 No Limit Hold'em - 9 players




Hero (UTG+2): $26.95

MP1: $25.10

MP2: $5.40

CO: $8.20

BTN: $24.65

SB: $5.60

BB: $25.00

UTG: $53.50

UTG+1: $5.60



Pre Flop: ($0.35) Hero is UTG+2 with 66 of diamonds 66 of hearts

UTG raises to $0.75, 1 fold, Hero calls $0.75, 6 folds



Flop: ($1.85) AA of clubs 88 of spades JJ of spades (2 players)

UTG checks, Hero checks



Turn: ($1.85) JJ of hearts (2 players)

UTG checks, Hero checks



River: ($1.85) 66 of spades (2 players)

UTG bets $52.75 all in, Hero calls $26.20 all in



Final Pot: $54.25

Hero shows 66 of diamonds 66 of hearts (a full house, Sixes full of Jacks)

UTG shows TT of diamonds AA of spades (two pair, Aces and Jacks)

Hero wins $51.55





PS I've shamelessly borrowed the hand conversion idea from Bastin.
