Hero (BTN): $8.89 (177.8 bb)
SB: $2.52 (50.4 bb)
BB: $5.34 (106.8 bb)
UTG: $4.08 (81.6 bb)
MP: $5 (100 bb)
CO: $5.07 (101.4 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BTN with Q♦ A♠
UTG folds, MP raises to $0.12, CO calls $0.12, Hero raises to $0.50, 2 folds, MP calls $0.38, CO calls $0.38

Flop: ($1.57) 4♥ 5♥ Q♣ (3 players)
MP bets $1.10, CO folds, Hero?

MP 41/22 (43)
CO is unknown.

My main concern is if i should just call or raise on this flop.
By calling he keeps all his range. But the turn can be tricky to play. I don't feel very comfortable calling another bet into a K ou .
Raise could bet the best decision. The thing is that i don't know if can be called by worst.
What would be the plan for turn?

If my top pair was the A, the hand could be played the same way?

Hey Sarvam,

Preflop squeeze is good.

I think best line postflop here is just to flat call flop and evaluate on turn vs a large bet - definitely considering a fold.

Raising might be an option but worrying that this line is very strong from MP. It's actually even close to an exploitative fold on the flop vs a lot of opponents at these limits.

raising is fine specially if mp seems fishy (which he does), he can have worse Q or hearts.
however, the problem is that his sizing makes spr kinda awkward for raising, so you kinda have to minr or raise with the intention of folding literally no turns.

i guess i'm fine with shoving, though calling and shoving most turns is good too.
[edit: don't you think MP looks kinda fishy? i don't really wanna fold that]
