I thought my pair of queens could be ahead of busted straight draw or something, but all in all, I dunno how to feel about this calldown.

Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

Play hand

$0.1/$0.2 Fixed-Limit Hold'em (9 handed)

Preflop: Hero is BU with Q:s, T:d.
6 folds, Hero raises, SB folds, BB 3-Bets, Hero calls.

Flop: (6.5 SB) K:h, J:h, 7:s (2 players)
BB bets, Hero raises, BB 3-Bets, Hero calls.

Turn: (6.25 BB) Q:d (2 players)
BB bets, Hero calls.

River: (8.25 BB) 6:d (2 players)
BB bets, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 10.25 BB.

Raising the Flop is certainly ok, if you have that raised balanced with madehands. especially if he's 3betting weak Ax hands and small pocketpairs it's hard to continue for him. and you can keep betting :heart: and 8 etc. he's not supposed to calldown AQ or AT or small pocketpairs so if you bet the turn, you should also bet the River again. Given he did 3bet the Flop, it may sometimes be AJ because he's putting you on a draw but that's actually the only reasonable hand and if he's playing that aggressive with AJ, he could also 3bet AT or AQ and on the river you're supposed to be behind against his entire valuerange so i would fold the river. Did you have any read about him?

No reads, just started playing 0.1/0.2 tables.

Kinda weird how different the game felt there.

Ok then i would call it down in order to pick reads and the reason that people like to overplay their hands and they 3bet where they ain't supposed to. unreasonable plays in general so i'll see a showdown and once i've recognized that this guy is kind of a taggish straight forward player you can fold the river easily.
