Two pair with the worst turn card

I think that shoving here is pretty bad. BB has a Q here just about always and you are a 70/30 dog to any Q. I don't think that FE makes up this gap. If you call and a heart comes, he is still calling because he is going to think that he is splitting.

Plus you don't get a chance to draw to a royal very often <Joking>

Why do you put BB on a Q here almost always? I really want to know what range you'd put him on that would make villain want to call with Q-x? Is it not realistic he called with A-x and is trying to take the pot away on the turn?

The only Q-x hand I could possibly see here is QJ. The price preflop obviously allowed him to call and in turn he flopped the nuts. But with the CO raise and the call from the button you'd have to put one of them on an Ace, which is the case here.

I just call here, I like the position and the hand. I can't see what river card would make me fold. Plus if villain indeed has the Q, there's the chance to fill up or make a flush.

Then again, I've been known to make a bad read or 2.
