Final Pot: $5.10

Should I bet this Turn card as scarecard for 2.25+? As played I probably have to fold to a Turn bet :-(

I call this river bet, because for the ~4:1 pot odds; I should be ahead 25% of the time, right?

[Nick C]

I probably bet-fold the turn. MP started with a random hand and so a junky queen is more likely than usual (as are middle and bottom pair).

As played, the river call is super-easy (even though I'm not thrilled that 87 got there).

[Aceium]

MP posted in and then just called on the flop. I don't see any reason to think that our queens aren't good here. If he limped in MP you might be more inclined to believe that he has a weak ace and floated you on the flop. When he checks behind you on the turn I would bet the river trying to get a call from any of his possible weaker hands.
