First warmup in forever, big hand early
 

I have sat out for the first ten minutes. Played one Hand vs Villain where I raised QJo in LP, Villain calls from BB,
bets T84r flop, I call, makes it a little less than 2/3 PS on the 6 turn, i make a loose / bad call River 2 goes check check and AJo is good.

Hero feels totally lost and doesn't know what to do.

1) Preflop Raise size is good?
2) How do you play the flop? Villain in Question is Alphawice. Such a sick spot imo.

How much did he bet at the flop? I may just dump it there.

For QQ, since you're oop, I like to raise a bit more pf. I have no clue about the flop, would like to hear what others think cuase I'd be pretty lost too.

I check/fold and don't feel bad about it.

That flop does suck.

Re: First warmup in forever, big hand early
 

Start by checking anyway. You have showdown value now - nothing more. In the previous hand he showed an abillity to double barrell air (I really hate calling the flop and turn in that hand. If you want to float, ok - but you can't call the turn unimproved and never try to take the pot away)so you can maybe call a bet.

Shut down unless somehow the dry jack peels on the turn. Alphawice is also super LAG so don't think about turning this into a bluff b/c he isn't folding anything better.
