Default Bet SCREAMS QQ/KK

Villain is 19/15 - He makes c-bets 40% of the time I think.

His turn bet screamed weakness to me. Is this just total spew?

SB: $59.40
BB: $32.80
UTG: $74.60

I'd do exactly the same play. Monster or nothing.

It will probably work too unless he has AA.

A+

Good play, the bet looks very weak.

I was almost 100% confident he folds.

I dont think this is the spot ot make this move for several reasons.

He could be checking that pot 5-way hoping for an eventual C/R, and when it doesn't happen on the flop he wants to build a pot on the turn.

Also, pick your villians carefully who you try to make fold QQ/KK. One street of aggression will usually not make them fold it, and you are forced to make another large bet on the river in my experience.

I love making moves like this, but I am unsure of its efficiency really at these microstakes and I like making them only IP in HU pots.

After I made the move this is exactly what I thought. But he was a tight opponent, so I figured him to make at least a psb with his hands that wanted a call.

Two checks = nothing, not good enough to call a bet/raise.

PLayer behind me is squeezed - basically I thought conditions were close to optimal for a 5 way pot bluff.
