As topic says,villain is Matthias Wahls, (german tag and ps.c headadmin for everyone who doesnt know him yet ).
As he is a thinking player the only hand making sense is something like AsXs ,probably 2 overcards to my nines.
If he hit a set there or got a higher overpair i dont think he would overbet the pot like that. The only reason for him to overbet it is generating foldequity. So most of the times its a semi bluff. Maybe sometimes some kind of crazy stonecold bluff.
As its a coinflip against a land like AsXs i think its an easy call cause its even money,especially due to the money commited into the pot preflop and on the flop.

The prob with that call is that a thinking player normally mixes up his handrange so that you cant be sure not to see sth. like 22/66/77 or even 67 here. He bets into 2 ppl. His bet is so huge that its normally -EV to destroy a great draw IP with the risk of running into a monster just to pick up a very small pot. That makes the possibility of him holding a great hand even greater.
If you are right and he is realy "just" holding some kind of big draw its just a coinflip.
.. so i just fold my 99 here ;)
