This guy was a huge fish. As soon as he called my preflop raise I knew I was getting paid, but I didn't expect it to look like this.

 The hard part is figuring out which of his plays was worse:
Calling pre flop ( i mean they aren't even soooted)
The weak bet on the flop, then calling the uber raise
calling the turn I guess makes sense, no reason to put you on a Q, his ducks are still good
then the 'value' raise on the river... wow.

The spooky thing is he would have presumably played Q2 the same way.

I would have figured I was beat on the river bet but there is no reason not to call for the small $ he has left. NH.
Stellar play by your opp.
Stakes: Playing $0.10/$0.25 NL

I was actually glad the turn and river came running queens, since I'd just outdrawn him if he'd flopped two pair.

I would have stopped betting at the turn and river I think.. I'd certainly check the river. I'd expect 88, TT, or J9s when he called both the preflop bet and flop bet. But that's why I'm still fish too I guess..

edit: knowing he was a huge fish helped, but even then I wouldn't put in a voluntary river bet.

Why not? He was calling with all kinds of weird hands, including ace high with no draw.

I'm not going to check what is probably the best hand when he's going to call me with pretty much any pair.
