    Default 50nl- 2p oop agasint good reg.

    Villain is 20/15, positionally aware, 44%cb, seems pretty decent, we don't have any immediate history prior to this hand, he prolly views me as a lag, although I'm just basing that on my stats, idk tbh.

    BB is fish.

    Cereus Network - $0.50 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
    Hand converted by PokerTracker 3

    Hero (SB): $50.00
    BB: $45.31
    UTG: $56.80
    MP: $89.60
    CO: $9.00
    BTN: $50.70

    Hero posts SB $0.25, BB posts BB $0.50

    Pre Flop: ($0.75) Hero has Q A

    fold, MP raises to $1.75, fold, fold, Hero calls $1.50, BB calls $1.25

    Flop: ($5.25, 3 players) K K Q
    Hero bets $3.50, fold, MP calls $3.50

    Turn: ($12.25, 2 players) 6
    Hero checks, MP bets $8.12,

    So I guess I could 3b pre but I wanted to keep the BB in the hand, also I didn't know what MP's defending range would be like from these positions, so it'd be thin for value imo.

    I lead flop coz I wanna get max value from BBs Qx hand, and if I ck it's gonna be really hard for me to get 3streets.

    Once I lead here, I think my range is pretty strong, and MP should know this, I guess my range is like JTs, Kx, Qx... thats about it?

    When he flats his range is basically the same as mine, I don't expect him to flat with gutters when my range is strong on a board I'm gonna barrel pretty often.

    So I ck the turn (mistake?) to let him bluff his JTs... idk wat else he can bet here. Like, does he have any reason to bet QJ/QT? I can't see any value in him betting those hands tbh... And I don't see how we can get 3sts from his QJ hands, I think he folds river most of the time.

    So when he bets here his range is polarized between Kx and floats (mainly JTs, maybe he can sometimes have AJ/AT, although I doubt it.) He could also have AQ.

    So if he's got more Kx hands than floats this could be a c/f turn?

    We have AQ on a KKQ board and you are worried that by checking you won't get three streets of value...

    The fish is folding this flop so often. We block his Qx hands and there is two Kings on the flop so it's unlikely he as anything at all.
    Checking is best because the PFRer will cbet close to 100% on this flop, and when he does check behind, the fish can spike an underpair and we can get two streets of value (maybe).

    I'd just bet/fold the turn for $7.50. As played I don't know what to make of his weird sizing, could call or fold.

    c/c flop, lead is very bad
    as played cc turn cc river
    also, getting 3 streets from bb is very unlikely and not particularly important
    note that given you hold Qx, a priori BB holds an equal number of combos of Qx as Kx. he will also likely play more preflop combinations containing a K than containing a Q
    I got more flava than fruitstripe gum
