Villain unknown. Probably a reg, couldn't find him in the player search.
In zoom I guess it's pretty standard to flat QQ pre. Not expecting to get called by a lot of worse when I 3bet here.
Postflop I find a check/raise pretty overplayed and expect to get called by mostly better. Thus, the plan was to check/call and then lead pretty much any turn apart from an ace or a king. I expect to get value from Tx, JJ, and flushdraws
Now he raises me. I find myself in this spot quite a lot (mostly with pockets, where I don't want to give a freecard OTT, so I lead). I actually don't see him on a lot of worse than our hand when he minraises.
And again... there's the odds discussion vs. the range.
If we call, and then fold the river (as played), why calling the turn in the first place?
Would you agree on my assumption that his raise represents a lot of strength and that we are actually beat, or would you call down, and why? (ultimate hand strength is obv. not a good reason)
