Putting ourselves in Villain 2 s shoes for a moment...
Don"t we flat AA/KK here? Villain 1 has done our dirty work by 3 betting and now we can leave the orig raiser to hang themselves with AK and lots of other stuff.
We (villain 2 still) are more likely to raise AQ/AK type stuff and smaller pairs because they are the ones we want to play against Villain 1.

Unless we are a no hoper in the game, it is wise to just avoid this marginal spot.

But that"s assuming he thinks like "us" also at these stakes a big chance he cold calls there with kq kj aj middling pairs they fold to a jam, would need some proof the player was competent. Can also look at it the other way that you want proof that"s he"s bad.

We don"t have much to go on here by way of reads which is the deciding factor in this spot, hence marginal. So you could guess, I suspect it"s an indifferent spot unless you happened to be flipping for 50+ bb"s with a guy you have a huge edge over.

The average player on Sky is not cold calling with AA/KK due to lack of info on him i had to put him in this bracket. I took the line of thought that he has to have a AK/Q10 type hand and wants to see a flop. So based on that i moved all in, assuming he"d fold this this type of hand and leave me to flip for the dead money with the shorty.
He called,
Ended up AK v QJ ( vil 2) v A3
Didn"t end well obviously!
Spiked the Q
