    Default QQ raise the ace turn? 25nl FR

    villain is weak and has huge bet-sizing tells (good hands big bets, weak hands small bets). 15-11. 65% flop/turn cbet. Standard? or just call it down?

    first caller pre is really loose-bad dead money. I didn't squeeze pre cos i was expecting the blinds to do it so i could shove over after pfr folded and caller called again. Didn't happen.

    squeeze pre, perfect scenarios like blind squeezing into 3 callers rarely happen.

    no idea what you're doing on the turn, care to explain?
    Nine to five is how to survive - I ain't trying to survive / I'm trying to live it to the limit and love it a lot //

    Can offer RB deals on most sites, PM me.

    I would never expect the blinds to squeeze light vs. UTG at these stakes.
    Playing big pots at small stakes.

    just to check - villain's range is KQ/99-JJ and i'm managing min-value with this line?

    The money will go in better if you raise the flop than the turn, agree/disagree?

    yeah, turn was pretty dumb. Zero value with the raise and it's a dumb spot to bluff.
    I was on a binge of taking down pots when i saw them free for the taking, but that's not very smart without thinking beyond merely 'i see free money, i take it'. Winning pots is ok, but maximising profits is better. As soon as the hand was over I marked it for review cos it seemed silly. Consensus is that it wasn't smart which is basically what i wanted to know.
    Cheers.
