    Default QQ hand

    No reads on villain. Without reads, is this a missed draw often enough?

    $0.1/$0.25 No Limit Holdem
    5 players
    Converted at weaktight.com

    Stacks:
    UTG ($61.31)
    CO ($20.60)
    Hero ($39.11)
    SB ($26.67)
    BB ($40.47)

    Pre-flop: ($0.35, 5 players) Hero is BTN
    1 fold, CO calls $0.25, Hero raises to $1.25, 2 folds, CO calls $1

    Flop: ($2.85, 2 players)
    CO checks, Hero bets $2.25, CO calls $2.25

    Turn: ($7.35, 2 players)
    CO checks, Hero bets $4, CO calls $4

    River: ($15.35, 2 players)
    CO goes all-in $13.10, Hero ??

    I would call it. All draws missed and that line is very "my draw didn't get there, can I have this pot please?" Sometimes he'll have a weirdly played monster (or J9 - boy would that suck) but I think you're +EV against his probable range, which has a lot of missed flush draws and JQ in it.

    Checking behind the turn makes the river decision much easier, as the shove will be too big to call, and a lot more hands will try to bluff you after you've shown weakness.
    My sig is too much for you to handle.

    the board is really drawy.... can i really give a free card? If a cooler comes on the river (i.e. diamond, A, 9...) can i really call any reasonable bet?

    I don't like checking behind there for the reasons you give. In fact I'd prefer a slightly larger turn bet ($5) which makes it clearer where you stand if he happens to check-raise you, and also a little easier to call a river bluff if he pulls the same crap he did here.
