SB: $12.45 (124.5 bb)
BB: $10 (100 bb)
UTG: $11.68 (116.8 bb)
MP: $10.32 (103.2 bb)
CO: $5.81 (58.1 bb)
Hero (BTN): $18.99 (189.9 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BTN with Q A
3 folds, Hero raises to $0.21, SB folds, BB raises to $0.68, Hero calls $0.47

Flop: ($1.41) Q 8 6 (2 players)
BB bets $0.90, Hero calls $0.90

Turn: ($3.21) 6 (2 players)
BB bets $1.75, Hero calls $1.75

River: ($6.71) 5 (2 players)
BB bets $2.50, Hero ??

Preflop: Default open and default defend vs 3bet. I usually just flat a 3bet there.

Flop: Hit top pair. Calling is standard, I would say.

Turn: Flushdraws came there, but I believe I can call once more, planning to fold any river except non spade A or Q probably).

River: He bets small, but I don't see him bluffing ever in this spot, so I believe I should fold despite of 21% of pot odds.

BB: 18/18/57 (VPIP/PFR/H)

I believe that number 20 doesn't mean much with this sample size, so didn't put it here. He 3bets 1 out of 5 occasions.

Looks like a block bet. Jam and rep flush or Fh, make him fold same hand or KK. That's what TwiceT would do lol. I think AQ and KK are big part of his range here though. He could also have 88 and bet small to get call of a Q. Close one, I guess I'd fold with not much info.

Even the turn call seems a bit ... to me. River is a fold.

Definitely a challenging spot. Given the strength of your hand and size of the bet it would seem like an easy call. The problem is however that because you will often have a queen here by betting this size he makes it irresistible to call. Sometimes players do this to be clever as a bluff, however that generally tends to be unlikely and happens more so at higher limits with more thinking players.

I would occasionally call here just to keep my opponents honest and keep updating my view of how they are playing, however I think in a vacuum you probably don't win enough to call.

Tough spot. I think both calling and folding are valid. Even though he gives us pretty good odds, I would personally fold this.
