Default QQ - over pair vs regular tag. an unusual line

<font color="blue"> villain is a mutlti tabling reg. his play varies form Tag to Nit, and today he's playing his wide open 15/13 game.
fairly solid postflop, capable of reading hands and reacting accordingly

i decided to take a line that i felt would maximize vs his (obvious) range
</font>


Poker Stars - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.50/$1 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter)

SB: $49.00
BB: $134.20
UTG: $155.45
Hero (MP): $217.60
CO: $175.05
BTN: $133.90

Preflop: Hero is dealt Q Q (6 Players)
UTG folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $4.00</font>, CO folds, BTN calls $4.00, 2 folds
<font color="blue"> hmm, his range is pretty small me thinks </font>

Flop: ($9.50) T 7 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 Players)
Hero checks, <font color="red">BTN bets $6.00</font>, Hero calls $6.00
<font color="blue">passive, but i dont think he calls a bet with anything worse in his range.
(now if i had like 89s i would bet this flop vs villain 100% of the time) </font>

Turn: ($21.50) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
Hero checks, BTN checks
<font color="blue"> now i know what he has, right? </font>

River: ($21.50) 9 (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $15.00</font>

#1, he definitely calls this flop with hands that you are ahead of, PPs, Tx....

and when you say 'now i know what he has' , what do you think that is?

looks fine, although I don't think he will call a river bet with a worse pair.

I think this is fine, as long as you're folding to a raise.

If he bet turn, I guess you'd call. If he bet turn and river, would you fold river?

Your line, after you c/c flop, is unlikely to get more out of 5's or w/e, no?

If you CB, check turn, you can sometimes get another bet out of him, no?

#1, he might call with PP's but hes not putting in a single cent more after the flop unless he hits a set. i dont think Tx is even in this guys range to be honest, and there not much left for the " ... part"

#2, hes 15/12, what do you think his calling range is on the button?
im gonna say 22-TT, maybe sc's in multiway pots.
