.5/1 Spewtastic QQ facing 2 cold on flop...
 

Wasn't sure what the hell to do on this flop... after the cap i'm assuming this is an obvious turn fold? CO is 36/4/.64 over 50 hands... no stats on UTG+1 to this point...

i call the flop and raise a safe turn card. that is not a safe turn card.

I guess you could still raise/fold the turn, but whatever.

Flop is standard. Turn might be a fold, but I think I'd call down since you don't have a read on CO. At least you didn't have to pay for the river.

I'd agree with this play if we had 99 or TT, where a lot of turn cards can be scary, but QQ has such huge equity, so why not just jam it?

I would play it just the same, can't really fold on the flop and I would rather raise than call with my queens.
CO can be on a flushdraw or holding 99-TT so the call on the turn and check on the river is a fine play IMO.
