4betting pre would have been overplay i guess
flop plan was to check-call, would check-raise been an option to?
When he checks behind flop, Ax is not really in his range, so should i have bet for protection? of value from lower pp even?
I call river because he bets only half pot, and my line doesn't look that strong so he might attempt a bluff

Button ($35.50)
SB ($10)
BB ($19.23)
UTG ($24.08)
UTG+1 ($22.70)
MP1 ($10)
MP2 ($11.74)
Hero (MP3) ($10)
CO ($10)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with Q, Q
4 folds, Hero raises to $0.30, 1 fold, Button raises to $0.50, 2 folds, Hero calls $0.20

Flop: ($1.15) A, J, 9 (2 players)
Hero checks, Button checks

Turn: ($1.15) 2 (2 players)
Hero checks, Button checks

River: ($1.15) 2 (2 players)
Hero checks, Button bets $0.50, Hero calls $0.50

Total pot: $2.15 | Rake: $0.10

Results below:

Spoiler

Button had K, 7 (one pair, twos).
Hero had Q, Q (two pair, Queens and twos).
Outcome: Hero won $2.05

Hey Vandeuren,

Preflop open is fine. Fine to flat call vs min-raise. I doubt it would be an overplay to 4b though, should be fine.

Flop check is fine. Check/call is good. Check/raise definitely an overplay.

Turn bet for protection is good, I agree with comments.

River x/c is ok. We should likely just be leading for value after opponent checks twice. Our QQ is nearly always good an opponent may call with worse.

Hello

How much would you bet in the turn? like 0,65$ or should it be more? And the size in the river after the bet in the turn?

Thanks in advance =)

would bet about 0,85$ , because board is really drawy
riverbet i guess just over half pot or something
don't know how to factor in the third spade , just guessing here, lets hope the judge looks at this tread again

Hey guys,

Keep in mind that most villains will cbet all their decent draws on the flop so we are less concerned about opponent having a drawing hand.

Turn sizing doesn't need to be large. Something like 1/2 pot turn + river should be fine, (Perhaps even less on river). To get value from Jx and worse pairs etc.

thx, :) had not considered fact that most villains would cbet draws, will keep this in mind for future sizings as this is quite common situation, will save me quite a few bb i imagine
