200NL QQ in reraised pot. Sort of deep.
 
Villain is 25/18/2.6 over 500 hands. We have played about 100 hands at this table and stayed out of each others way. I think this is actually the first time I have 3-bet him at this table. So he basically has no reason to think I'm full of it.

Maybe I should have bet the turn. Bet/fold?

His large turnbet really confused me though. On one hand I really have no reason to think he is floating me, and I doubt he would bet JJ here. But why would he make such a huge turnbet, when a much smaller bet would still mean he could push river. Kind of seems like he is committing himself with a medium strength hand.

So what does he have? A set/AA/KK, or a 56s/78s kind of hand. Very confused.

Running so bad lately and probably playing pretty bad as well.

If u call here, u basicly commit urself, so i think thats wrong, id never call but CRAI or fold.

The problem is that the board is really dry, he could easily have a set here.. the big turn bet is weird indeed as a smaller bet will commit alot of hands too, but im probably folding here, most of the time, unless i got a good read about his play post flop.

Given how deep you are and that you are oop, I like your line, and I fold the turn. If he takes you off the best hand, congratulate him for only taking 15% of your stack.

Agree. Good fold. What are you beating here? The odd turn bet could be just that -- an odd looking bet by AA, KK, or a set designed to make QQ call.

This is usually KK-AA

You are only beating 1010-JJ imo.

Thanks for the replies guys. If I'm ahead it is not a hand like JJ/TT, he is checking those behind on the turn 98% of the time. If I'm ahead he has a pair plus draw of some sort. I'm probably crushed way too often to continue with this hand though.

bet more on the flop. His play really feels like AA to me trying to make sure he busts your QQ/KK.

Why is a bigger flopbet superior? It's super dry and I usually bet somewhere between 1/2 to 2/3 pot in reraised pots. No more needed to get the money in eventually and not as concerned with draws usually.

Fold turn. Betting bigger on the flop would be a mistake.
