Hi guys, I'm new here, thanks for accepting me in this forum. I have been playing poker for a few years, just for fun.
Last night I played live, and I'm not sure I made the right decision.

We are 4 players, blinds are 1/2, I'm on the button with $145, KQ off suited.
Cutoff (covers) raise 10, I just call, sb and bg fold. I don't know this player, he just arrived, the hand before raised x5 as well but everybody folded.

Pot: ~20
Flop is Q-9-2.
He bet 15, I just call.

Pot: ~50
Turn is 5,
He bets 30 very quickly, i call.

Pot:`110
River is 7, and he goes all in (for more than my remaining $90). Like before, instant bet.

I think about it. The dealer think oppo checked, and he gets a little angry because he moved the chips to show he went all in. Another player calls the clock, and I fold. I show him KQ, saying he was bluffing, he smiles and say "maybe".

Actually my stack was 90, I was not committed, but I think if I had more he wouldn't have bluffed.

Do you think I played well? Was he bluffing? Unfortunately I didn't have any informations about this player as he just joined the table. He could have AA, KK or AQ in my opinion

I have moved you're hand to our hand discussion forum. There fits it better.
5x seems like a huge raise pre-flop, but I dont play live games. Than I would defend tighter than normal, but if this is villains standard size I wouldn't mind the defend in position with KQo.

It could be a bluff, but that's pure with the fact villain is betting pretty fast without thinking to much on every street. Not sure you could have reads on his behavior as well. I would expect if he had a really strong hand he would think some more to get value, but it's tough to know without knowing the player.

Cheers,
