i like your thinking.. but this is 50nl... im not really concerned about my image

IMO, there are enough regs at 50nl that this is a great time to start becoming very aware of your image and its impact.

Learning how to beat the regs at each level is critical in your growth because in-between playing the fish, you will also have to play the regs.

How they view you will impact how they play you. Being aware of who the regs are and how they view you, and if they are capable of adjusting to your image can significantly impact your winrate.

Your ability to manipulate your image (and consequently your foes) goes a long way to manipulating your winrate.

It's easy to dismiss image at lower levels, but I believe not being concerned with your image is a definite leak @ 50nl and possibly even 25NL.

My two cents FWIW. Mileage may vary.

Just as an excercise in figuring out his range, wouldn't A-x clubs be in his range here ?

Also would you expect someone call with Q-10 o or Q-9s and then minraise the flop ? I also wouldn't expect low pocket pairs to behave like this either, except for 2s or 7s. Why didn't you put JJ+ - because you'd expect them to 3-bet preflop ?

It depends on the someone. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] JJ, yes I'd expect to be 3-bet most of the time. But if my villian is a passive nit, they might just call.

Figuring out the range here is really tough because we just sat down and have 0 reads. He could be an aggro monkey or a nit who just hit the nuts with QQ. We can easily widen or narrow the range if we knew who we were playing. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] My range was just a quick range brainstorm as a starting point...

As other posters have mentioned, this is just a tough spot.

Readless it's always hard to interpret the min-raise. One opponent's min-raise = QQ, the other means flush draw, the other means TPNK, the other means TPTK.

I fold to his flop min c/r. I definitely fold to his turn bet. I would call his flop c/r if you had a higher kicker but pretty much youre hoping this is either QT or a draw. In general unknowns dont min c/r with either of those, so I need a read or stats on this guy before I start thinking tpgk is the nuts.
