This was early in the sunday storm. Did I play right on the flop? I tried to semi bluff the turn and induce bluff on the river.

Could the villain have played AA the same way? I don't think the villain would have bet the river with KK.

Will a call on the flop be +EV with that bet size?

Could have I played the QQ any different way to be more profitable and not put in a difficult spot?
Is it a good play to just flat the UTG open?

He bobthebuilder00!

Hand1: easy 4bet pre imo against most bu squeeze ranges.
as played -> why donk turn? that makes no sense at all. There are not really worse hands that call a bet on the turn... its a ch/c imo!

River I jam myself -> you lose value otherweise vs jj-kk and ax that decide to check behind!

and please post the other hand in a new thread -> we have a 1hand/thread principle!

Greets,
Tiltberger

HI

Thank you for the reply!

I put the villain on KK/JJ/AK, I tried to semi bluff/blocker bet representing an A. My plan was to get to a cheap showdown incase he has KK and check/call and river. I know I should have jammed the river.

Is it good to stack off early in the tornament with QQ? The villain is not gonna call with worse hands. Incase he 5 bet shoves I am up against KK/AA. And I will have to call. The reason I did not 4 bet.

I will post one hand per thread from now on.

Thank you!
