MP: $10.37 (207.4 bb)
CO: $9.86 (197.2 bb) 51/35/4.8/13
BTN: $5.22 (104.4 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q Q
MP folds, CO raises to $0.15, 2 folds, Hero raises to $0.50, CO calls $0.35

Flop: ($1.02) 8 J 9 (2 players)
Hero bets $0.49, CO raises to $0.98, Hero raises to $1.50 and is all-in, CO calls $0.52

Turn: ($4.02) 2 (2 players, 1 is all-in)
River: ($4.02) 3 (2 players, 1 is all-in)

Results:

Spoiler

$4.02 pot ($0.17 rake)
Final Board: 8 J 9 2 3
Hero showed Q Q and lost (-$2 net)
CO showed T Q and won $3.85 ($1.85 net)

I notice this guy is very fishy (shoving K10s) so I decide to shove here. Please advise how I should play in that straight draw turn, considering I only have 40bb
Thank you very much.

Hi,

Since you have 30bb left and holding overpair in 3-bet pot I think it is easy bet/shove line on the flop. Sometimes he is going to min-raise with worse hands as AJ or just making some kind of stupid bluff. Also he can always have just Tx. Pot odds are too good to b/f overpair+gutshot, so I like line which you took

best regards,
