No reads on this one. Had to call river right since it was a blank. Was gonna fold to a push - is that too weak?

Also, how does your play change if the river is a K or A

Re: NL100 QQ calldown
 

looks good.

his tiny bets are strange, and not consistent with AA/KK -- i'd raise somewhere before i folded.

Re: NL100 QQ calldown
 

Your line looks fine.

He's weak flop bet makes me want to raise, but I don't know if it's good.

I'd probably call the A/K river if he'd bet the same amount.

Re: NL100 QQ calldown
 

I think I'd raise the flop here to ~$25 to get value from smaller pocket pairs and deny AK to draw cheaply to the 6-outer. if he 3-bet pushes I'd probably fold. By just calling you give 88-JJ a chance to escape easily since any overcard on the turn will be a scare card to Villain. As played, I don't think it's possible to find a fold anywhere.

Re: NL100 QQ calldown
 

ime this is AA/KK almost allways, i fold the river or raise the flop and don´t put any more in if called or rred obv.

I really like this line.

I think I can fold the river. In my experience, the small bet on the flop followed by a big bet on the turn and river is almost always a very strong hand. I'd expect to see AA and KK a ton here.

Re: NL100 QQ calldown
 

I raise flop. As played, it looks about right.

Re: NL100 QQ calldown
 

I prefer to raise at some point either the flop or turn to know where i stand. Generally with a weak lead like this on the flop i'd re-raise there.
