Do I draw bad? Fairly sure I have to hit to win. An A -might- be good.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

UTG ($41.45)
MP ($20.95)
Button ($22.25)
SB ($13.70)
Hero ($25)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q, A.
2 folds, Button raises to $0.5, 1 fold, Hero raises to $2, Button calls $1.50.

Flop: ($4.10) J, T, 9 (2 players)
Hero bets $3, Button raises to $6, Hero calls $3.

Turn: ($16.10) 6 (2 players)
Hero checks, Button bets $6, Hero calls $6...
<Staxalax> Honestly, #flopturnriver is the one thing that has improved my game the most.

The draw part is fine, though sometimes you can only chop with a King and lose with an 8 or diamond. I don't c-bet this flop though.

bet 6 rather than call 6. You have almost 0 implied odds on the str8 and every out is pretty dirty.

I disagree on both accounts. This guy sucks.

I think this is fine. You're getting almost 4-1 on a 5-1 draw on the turn, I don't see a spot to fold. Flop minraises on draw heavy boards = the player sucks.

Also, this was min-raised from the button pre-flop. He could have just about anything and isn't exactly putting you to difficult decsions here. I love to gamble it up with guys like this.

why does that argue for call rather than bet?

I'll retract my statement about him having anything. However, I just don't think he's very strong as I would expect to see a lot of random hands here.

His mistake is not betting big enough and we figure to have a bunch of outs. If we bet we're setting him up to protect his hand.

Given we think he has mostly iffy hands, how about we shove over the flop raise? If he calls probably a flip, if not great.
