What's with the weaksauce betting size on flop/turn? Specifically the turn. If you're doing it to induce a bluff, great .. now don't fold when you do just that.

This is a trivially easy call for the simple fact that he can and will be value betting worse often.

Weak turn bet is due to my read that he likes to raise when he sees weakness. My intention was to 3bet then I froze and just called.

 You can't narrow his range down to one hand. You have to put him on a range like this:

Board: 2c 3d Qh As
Dead:

equity win tie pots won pots tied
Hand 0: 74.126% 74.13% 00.00% 424 0.00 { QdQs }
Hand 1: 25.874% 25.87% 00.00% 148 0.00 { 33-22, AQs, 54s, AQo }

All of these hands play almost exactly the same.
Ergo, get all-in and be super happy about it.

Even if he has an AF of 0.5, I still call his push on the river though.

 What they said. Your show of weakness worked, so stop looking for the monsters under the bed.

Of course he had 54 this time or you wouldn't have made this post, right?

I'm not being results oriented, but for some reason I felt like I had to make a hero call here.


PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $2 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

Button ($957.95)
SB ($210)
BB ($163.95)
Hero ($278)
MP ($148.90)
CO ($162.15)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with Q, Q.
Hero raises to $8, 1 fold, CO calls $8, Button calls $8, 2 folds.

Flop: ($27) 2, 3, Q (3 players)
Hero bets $15, CO folds, Button calls $15.

Turn: ($57) A (2 players)
Hero bets $25, Button raises to $78, Hero calls $53.

River: ($213) 9 (2 players)
Hero checks, Button bets $177, Hero calls $177 (All-In).

Final Pot: $567

Results in white below:
Hero has Qd Qs (three of a kind, queens).
Button has 8c 8s (one pair, eights).
Outcome: Hero wins $567.

 You're losing a ton of value checking that river.
