the turn maybe, kinda augments a drawish board. Might wanna protect yourself there with some meat.

It looks fine, though.

Smithers, use the amnesia ray.
You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.

As soon as the flop comes down, you should be thinking about how to get your stacks all-in. That comes down to reads a lot of times, but assuming he's weak/passive (as it looks from how he ended up playing) I'd up the bets on all streets. $1 on the flop, $2.50 or $3 on the turn, the rest in on the river. The second Q is a great card for you. There's a chance it gives him trips, and if it doesn't then he's folding no matter what you bet.
