CO: $20.05
BTN: $22.60
SB: $13.35
Hero (BB): $66.55

Pre-Flop: T/images/graemlins/spade.gif J/images/graemlins/spade.gif dealt to Hero (BB)
UTG calls $0.25, 2 folds, SB calls $0.15, Hero checks

Flop: ($0.75) K/images/graemlins/heart.gif Q/images/graemlins/heart.gif 8/images/graemlins/spade.gif (3 Players)
<font color="red">SB bets $0.25</font>, Hero calls $0.25, UTG calls $0.25

Turn: ($1.50) Q/images/graemlins/spade.gif (3 Players)
<font color="red">SB bets $0.25</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $1.25</font>, UTG folds, <font color="red">SB raises to $3.50</font>, Hero calls $2.25

River: ($8.50) 9/images/graemlins/club.gif (2 Players)
<font color="red">SB bets $3</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $10</font>, SB calls $6.35 and is All-In

Both villains are fairly terrible but I figured I had enough FE to fold out a weak king (and I was planning to double barrel if SB just called). After the turn 3-bet, SB has pretty much any queen. Standard shove on the river?

Play is fine. It is most likely SB has a Q, but I doubt it's a KQ (though Q8/Q9 are possible here). I probably would have played it the same though I'd be a little curious as to why SB continues to be the river. Only thing is, I don't like just calling here, the times we beat a one queen, and I don't like raising the times SB boated up. I'd more or less do the same thing, raise and hope for a lone Q.

IMO, if you lose, he has Q9 or 88 - I don't think he'd play two pair on the flop like that and then get really aggro with a full house on the turn.

He has a bare queen here often enough to make the river a push.

i dont really like the turn but its not horrible.
River is an easy shove as played.

yeah play seems fine. i might just call on the river... because of his betting.. but either way seems just fine

I think your play here is ok. If he had made trips on the turn I think he would have raised you a little more. I would be ok calling this river seeing that I usually take minraises on late streets as strength, but getting it all in isn't wholly bad.
