$5NL 6-Max, What\'s your move when checking the probable nuts
 

on the end has little to no value as a bluff catcher?

Read on villain: he is decent so far, but that's not really saying much, because he had a big stack when I got to the table and we haven't really tangled too much until this pot.

Lead flop, you need to build a pot.
3-bet turn a little more to 1.5.
I push this river and get looked up by any Q

Overbet pushing on the end seems really bad, especially when you consider that any other Queen would have bet the flop behind me and most likely is 4-betting the turn.

Hero bets $2, at least.

But are you smooth calling a 3-bet on the turn with less than Q3 looking to call a value bet with the weakest hand?

What do you think he's calling your turn 3-bet with? a 7? a mid pp? Queens can easily slowplay this flop(you did).

How often do you think villian is calling a $2 bet with a hand that beats you in order for this to be a good bet?

Are you serious with this reply? If only two hands beat me, what makes you think 97.54% I'm getting a call?
