Anyways, nothing about how I played the hand suggests I'm not willing to call anything more on the river. My fold suggests I wasn't willing to call $42.

When he makes a bet that large, it indicates he is either bluffing or has a hand stronger than aces and queens, since A-Q is one of the hands he can most expect me to have.

If you felt that even improving meant you were beat, you must simply fold.

When you call his raise and hit the A it's a pretty tough fold you make on the river. I think I would have called.
