Villain is 35/8/2.5 over 200 hands. We're playing on a couple of tables together and have gotten into it a few times. We've both been aggressive and have only showdown once, when I beat his turned set with a turned flush and took most of his stack. Against other opps, he's shown down one bluff and a couple of nice hands.

well he took the "i have a monster line." do you think he is capable of taking this line with a hand that you beat?
Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject. So you know you are getting the best possible information.

I think this guy could be bluffing, but obv I didn't think the chances were high enough to call.

I guess I'm more interested in hearing thoughts on the turn action.

The preflop akshun (open-limp/call?! c'mon) along with the fat raise on the turn makes me think of a set.

Calling is probably worse than raising or folding here as you're likely to face a river bet if you check in front on the river. if you are really determined to show down the queens, you can try to block the river but I sense that a river bet would get raised.

I don't like raising the turn here - the akshun really seems like a set. Thus I fold.

If villian is bluffing, I let him go this time and try to pick a better spot later.

 if you bet the turn, i think you fold to a raise versus this line. I dont think a c/c block bet river line is awful, but the flush card gives opp plenty of oppertunity to bluff even if he doesnt have us beat.
