Default $200 NL - Straight Flush Draw...

But a straight flush draw on the turn. Does anyone ever call here? Should I be raising at some point? (I folded without worrying too much about it as I thought it unlikely he'd try to bluff me after I called him down light earlier, but I'm more interested in the hand in general)

Party Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $1/$2
5 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $213.40
CO: $211.75
Button: $228.94
Hero: $207.25
BB: $190

Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is SB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
3 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $7</font>, <font color="#cc0000">BB raises to $21</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $56</font>, BB calls.

Flop: T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ($112, 2 players)
Hero checks, BB checks.

Turn: 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ($112, 2 players)
Hero checks, <font color="#cc0000">BB is all-in $134</font>, Hero folds.

Really hate your 4 bet size. what are you trying to do here?

I think you should bet/fold the flop but then the stack size is kind of weird.

As played, I think the fold on the turn is fine.

I four bet preflop because he'd three bet me three times in the last couple of minutes b2b. I four bet to a smaller amount because it achieves exactly the same as if I make it $70 odd but costs less.

yeah, what were you hoping for 4-betting the flop; doesn't seem right at all in SB.

I guess what's interesting here is that villain checked behind on flop. Who checks behind on this flop with AA/TT/JJ? I see merit for it, but it still feels goofy.

I fold here, but, I gotta tell you, I can't help but to feel that a small part of his range is 99.

Yeah, but you are OOP with QQ playing for rest of your stack on the flop. If you call three bet and the board comes dry, it's better EV, yes?

Bleh, nh. Minraise 4-bet against someone who 3-bets lightis fine. He can't call profitably without a v. decent hand against your range.

I think you have to call a push tho.

Post-flop fine.
