Hi Peter,

preflop I would raise his minraise to 0.16 to provide him bad pot odds

flop you should definitely cbet bigger even with second pair, but on his check raise you should fold, you even don't have top pair - every Q beats you, sets, he could even trap with QQ-AA. You only have backdoor straight draw

turn I would check behind

river He could be trapping, for given very good odds I would only call, you beat only blufs - which will fold on your raise and everything what he calls beats you (unless he is complete maniac).

GL on tables!

Hello Peter68a,

Preflop: As there is pointed out that vs min-raise you should be raising bigger instead the default 3x rule.
Postflop: If you want to Bet the flop then Bet it bigger and protect your hand you have a leak in your CB sizes. And nor I don't get why do you shove the river? Why not just Call and be happy about it if you are ahead?

Best Regards.

" but on his check raise you should fold" - Absolutely right. He did indeed have a Q.

Many thanks
