6.50 - QQ scary turn card

I was 25 tabling at the time hand came up, and usually in the past I go broke in this. But trying to go less broke with overpairs early on now...

raise 120 pre and pot bet flop imo.

I think 90 preflop is fine, but then pot the flop. If someone calls the flop bet, push the turn.

One of two has to have j9 or a flush draw.... But this is a 6.50..

The turn has to be a misclick, right? I'm never ever folding a set on that board in a 6.50, if someone is ahead I just outdraw them on the river. Raise more pre and on flop obv

You can't fold, if he has the straight or flush the board can still pair, he may have a smaller set, two pair, one pair, etc.

Can't let this go, shove.

as others have touched on, increasing your bet sizing would make this hand a lot easier for you, and make a shove on the turn a no brainer. Remember, even when you think youre losing to one of the players you'll have plenty of odds/pot equity to get it in combined with when you are ahead.

pot the flop, shove the turn. poker is ezeee.

You have the best hand enough and 10 outs when you don't.

edit: oh and 25 tabling $6.50s....el oh el.
