Am I completely out of line here
 

Didnt have any reads. My thinking was he was slow playing the queen and a big turn bet could get him off it because the ace hit. Is this out of line, and spew?

against an unknown i rarely two barrel this kinda board.

it seems like youre going to be stuck calling there with your $25 bet and his raise of $18 more. id rather opt to go for a check there and take the free card and see what he does. if he checks river im probably going to check behind there against an unknown.

Folding here is right given the board but I would've preferred c/c or c/r the flop and c/f the turn. What would you have done if he reraised to $27 on the flop, do you call?

Re: Am I completely out of line here
 

I would fold if he raised the flop.

Don´t see the point in 2barreling a halfstack here, if he had a full stack this play is much better, he is more likely to fold a queen then.

thats true; everytime i get cute with these short boys, it end up bad.

Re: Am I completely out of line here
 

Donk like bet/folding the turn here. I check and see what he does, maybe c/f

Re: Am I completely out of line here
 

As played, I think c/f on turn would be the best. A shorty is often harder to get off the pot.

Re: Am I completely out of line here
 

c/f turn is best play imho

This is a more genereal question intended for people who have played a ton at this level.

Do you need to make moves like this to be a winner at nl100?

I've only played ~1000 hands of nl100 but so far it's not been any tougher than nl50, maybe even slightly softer. It seems that there is plenty to be made just playing tight abc poker. In fact the trickiest opponents I've found so far are people I recognise from nl50!
