Something appears to be unusual about this hand history.

sorry, its fixed now. any thoughts?

sorry you lost.

I'd 3 bet the turn if I'm going to stack off here I think.

But was my bet on the turn correct? what kind of hands, from the information above does he most likely possess, given his betting line>?

Preflop - fine.

Flop - Good bet.

Turn - Also good bet, considering all the draws that could be filled. And of course you should call the minraise although you should begin to suspect something.

River - What happened here? Did you go all-in or did he?
Anyway, I think it's a clear check as you shouldn't be too happy about that other queen. If he went all-in, I think it's time to fold. If you did, well I don't like it.

(I put him on either TT or K-Q. He could have A-Q, thinking you had a weaker PP, and wanted to min-raise on turn just to find out where he's at. Then he got trips on river. But that doesn't explain why he called the flop. So I think KQ is more likely, and explains perhaps even more why he would just call on flop, and raise turn, and made his boat on river.)

I pushed first. tbh this same villain had stacked me 3 times within the same session, so I might have been on tilt. Would the result help or not?

I'd like to read the results if you don't mind [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I'm just curious if you met K-Q or not.

Your turn bet is fine, the trouble is what happens after he raises.
