Nl50- QQ

[murmeltier21]

Hello!
Villain is 20/15/3 and i have not seen him do anything special over the 120 hands i have on him. so no specific reads or notes other than pt.
I guess this is a situation where losers call and winners fold or raise?! So what should be the default against a reasonable villain?
Btw.: Cbet could be a touch bigger... but we're not discussing that now

Seems like CO is raising your c-bet to see if you're holding AK or another non-pp. I'd call and then bet a blank turn. If villain had you beat pf, he would have rr with KK or AA, so either he's (semi)bluffing or he's got a set. You'll find out more on the turn.

Hero raises pot

I love just shoving this flop - looks so much like a draw to villain that I think you get looked up with pretty weak overpairs a high percentage of the time.

that's what i was thinking, too. i can't call since theres like 30 cards in the deck that suck monkeyballs...
so my default should be just going to war with my overpair?!

Call reevaluate turn. Nearly every draw on this board has a [censored] of equity on this board(pair + oesd, pair + fd, oesd + fd) and raises makes you committed as most likely a huge dog.

you definately need to raise here. i dont see any card (other than a non-heart Q) that could be good. A raise could:

1. chase away draws, or draws shoving.

2. committ yourself to the pot. giving you an easier decision on the turn or river.

or you could just fold, lose 5 dollars and save yourself by getting stacked.

I would much rather raise instead of folding here. a set would NOT min raise with such a draw heavy flop.

The way this hand was played pf, do you think villain is worried about hero having a drawing hand? Just curious.

[murmeltier21]

a minraise could be a set, smaller overpair, draw (there are quite a few possible on this board) TPTK, TPNK and stuff.

here's how it went: i 3bet to 20bucks, he pushed, i puked and called. he showed me J7 of spades. i won and added him to my buddy list =)

I think this is a general indication of how much players at this level over-value top pair
