Default QQ 3-handed, scary board

This was the 3rd hand I'd raised in a row. Any bet on the turn pretty much commits me to the pot. MP was loose and fairly passive. Button was new to the table and 17/0 thru only 20 hands or so.

One of the draws just got there. C/f or b/c?

i bet again. we're obv getting all in w/MP since he started the hand w/only $40. btn is a different story, if he raise, i probably stack off since i hate folding on this board to an unknown.

MP is short, I dont mind stacking off against him. I would bet 26 and fold if BTN raises. Since the most likely hand for BTN is medium PP, I don't think he will do anything crazy when his hand still has showdown value.

We could check and let MP bet his remaining stack, see if button pushes/folds/calls, then make a decision from there.. if MP pushes and Button shoves it's an easy fold and you save a turn bet.. if MP pushes and button folds you can call MP since he could have any draw

i don't like this idea when we could be getting value from flush draws and middle pps.

You gotta bet here because there are just so many hands that are calling a bet that might check back or like bet really small and fold to a raise. You're too short to induce a shove, so just bet biggish.. like 33.

ya that's true.. I get too paranoid when I'm not HU by the turn with overpairs.

I love these sort of boards when facing two bad players. Your flop bet gets called by pairs, overcards, flush draws, fives, straight draws, etc.. I'd bet big again on the turn - around $35.

Bet like 35ish and call a shove from BTN, too many scare cards can fall to make a FD hit or 4 to a straight or something like that.
