Default I take a weird line with QQ but wtf?

I know I played this horribly, this isn't my normal line but for some reason I guess I checked the flop because villain is a solid tag regular, and we were a little deep, so I didn't want to get check raised on the flop. He probably views me as a nitty tag. I know I probably should have bet more on the turn also. Do I have to fold this turn as played? What do you think villain has? He is about 21/17/3.5 ish.

your line is too fos/weak for you to fold here. also, i have a hard time believing he'd check two pair/set/straight to you on the turn after you check back flop. board is just too drawy for that. i think his range is like {draw, air}.

no way can you fold, given the line you've taken. plenty of hands he could be raising with that are worse than QQ that he genuinely believes to be good here. plus bluffs/draws.

this is a really rough spot though, there are sooo many draws out there, you're gonna hate almost every single river card that hits. but you have position on him. i think a call is good here, and then reevaluate river/villains action.

this like is perfect for trying to get villan to do exactly this. If u dont want him to do that. Ore to be in this position... well then why di..

also 3bet much more.. like to 14-15 u are a bit deeper and as played yes bet more turn.

great hand great position and manage to do this.

Yeah, problem is you've made it look like AK/any steal on turn, you've set it up beautifully for him to make a move but you don't want him to. I thnk air/draw is a big part of his range as he has no reason to think he can't take it down here.

Cos of that I don't think you can fold. Hmmm, I'm not sure you can raise though, but it's gonna be another tough spot on river.
