I found this hand pretty interesting. I'm new to the 600NL game so I'd like to hear from others what you put this guy on and if you call or fold here. I don't have any reads on the guy as I've only played like 15 hands at the table.

It looks like I've just been continuation betting when I checked behind on turn. I look weak, so why would he think I'd call an all in here? Looked like a busted flush draw to me and that he wanted me to fold, so I called.

Iwindk is all-In.
butterbasket shows [ 5d, 4d ] two pairs, queens and twos.
Iwindk shows [ Th, Tc ] two pairs, queens and tens.

On the other hand he might want it to look like a busted flush draw and get me to call with a hand like I had, is that more standard at 600?

wow big call.

i guess the board has paired and theres 2 flush draws out there which neither of you are protecting. He reads you for not holding the Q so thinks you cant call his push?

Iwind, very gutsy call. What would make me lean towards folding is the sheer pot odds. He overbet the pot so huge on the river I think just laying it down in the long run is much better. There are tricky players that would play a Q like this just to represent the missed draw. Also, it makes no sense for him to go all in on the river when he could easily just overbet the pot SOME. That said, not all players are smart, and a lot of the times when players make huge overbets like this they are missed draws if you showed weakness on the turn.

This is the kind of call you want to save for when you have a good read on a player that you have played with quite a bit, I'm saying that out of experience from making similar calls and having them flip over the nuts.
