Default Re: 50NL: How much to raise?

With these kinds of passive villains, you have to do their betting for them and its usually best to assume they have the best possible losing hand which is probably AQ here. So, a shove seems best, I doubt you get called much less often than a bet to 30.

I also half-3/4 pot bet the turn in this hand. I think you're too quick to put villain on a Q, he is a station and is just as likely to have a mid pair or Ax and even bigtime calling stations usually give up to a second barrel unless they really have at least TP.

As you discovered it's pretty tough to get paid after you hit and you fold out a lot of A hi hands that otherwise are going to take this pot on the river.
