dont show results
i call pf, if i 4bet, its not that weakish.
i like the turn check, i like the rivercheck, i dont think you can fold now.

i dont mind getting it in by betting here but i really hate getting it in the way you did.

edit: actually with the Q on the flop you really dont want to get it in vs most players.

what? what the [censored] is a turnbet supposed to accomplish?
oh btw op, you might include the reads you didnt trust?

4bet bigger, flop is fine, turn is good river could go b/f or c/c depending on opponent's tendencies. if you have a read feel free to share with us. as far as confidence goes, i find as i get more experience (in general or with a specific person) my "feelings" get more accurate, you'll learn to trust them the better they get. don't be afraid to deviate from the book/2+2 mantra if you really feel like you should, that's how you learn.

Looks fine and B/F river some times and C/C river some times depending on villain. Rarely C/F river. What were those reads in which you didn't trust?
