I expected him to hold QQ.
Otherwise its an obvious raise against AcJc and 88, 99...

call riverpush if a blank falls?

which line do you prefer? and why?!

1) why the heck do you expect him to have QQ? im sure its in his range, but why QQ rather than anything else?
2) fold if he has QQ, fairly obvious . . .
3) you sure villain does not reraise QQ preflop? in my experience the type of villain who slowplays QQ pre also slowplays QQ on a flop like that, and instead wakes up on the turn, but very player dependent. you have no reads, fair enough, but i end to assume unknowns rr
4) you really havent considered that a 6 could be part of his range. obv depends on blind defense frequency, but alot of people are capable of turning up with one
5) i dont think many people would would call a turn raise with much worse than you have, so a raise would be for defense. but you get called by pretty much everything that is beating you.

hmm pretty hard decision. i think i raise for defense, but that may be quite a mistake. i would be interested to read other thoughts.

That flop is a great c/r flop for the villain. I call the turn, and it's very rare that he'll bet the river with anything other than air or 6/x or a flush, maybe a ten if he paired it. Your bet/call, call line looks very strong in my opinion. I reevaluate on river. Mostly, folding turn is terrible, and raising is only getting value (maybe) from T/x.

Call and re-evaluate river. Wtf at putting him soley on QQ. Flush draw and 6 are massive part of this range and even 98 gets there on the turn.

[whaahhahahah]

imo you didn't improve on the turn because his range includes more 89 than 99/88/7x with a bigger kicker.
