Default 50nl: QQ makes top set 250BB DEEP, help me get his stack.

Villain is 26/21 over 100 hands. He seems ok pre-flop and passive post-flop.

My Image: At the beginning of the session i was pretty active and got the feeling that other players at the table were definitely getting 'fed up'. Recently however i have tightened up due to a bad run of hole cards. Im running at about 20/18 for the entire session.

Poker Stars, $0.25/$0.50 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 5 Players
LeggoPoker Hand History Converter

SB: $48
BB: $33.80
UTG: $105.25
Hero (CO): $129.40
BTN: $127.80

Pre-Flop: Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (CO)
BB folds, UTG calls $0.50, <font color="red">Hero raises to $2.50</font>, BTN calls $2.25, 2 folds

Flop: ($6) Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
BTN checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $4</font>, <font color="red">BTN raises to $10</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $35</font>, BTN calls $25

Turn: ($76) 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 Players)
BTN checks,]Hero???

Ok so I have narrowed his range to AA, KK, 66, 22 or AQ. Now, how do i go about getting max value when he has AA KK or AQ?
If i bet here I look pretty strong and would expect him to fold KK and AQ. However, if i check will he lead river? Will he be more likely to call river bet than turn bet? Thoughts?

Hmmmm....

I'd bet about 40, a sort of 'please fold ffs' sized bet ,and hope he shoves.

either that or just shove

It looks to me like he's going for a double check raise. Bet, and get it all in on this blank turn. He probably thinks you have AA or KK.

i dont see how a smaller bet is better. he might fold AQ, but with a passive postflop read, is he really going to fold AA? or even KK? sets are getting in no matter how we play it. the way he played it, the range should heavily weigh onto 22 and 66, AQ sometimes, AA occasionally, KK almost never...

yes... there is definitely a chance AA/KK are folding this turn to a standard bet on the turn... a standard bet would be about 50-55 which would pot commit him because hed only have about 35 behind... this is why im a fan of the smaller bet... i cant see AA/KK folding to a $30 bet on the blank turn after they called $35 on the flop (we can also get AQ to come along for the ride a lot of the time)... with this small bet they have about $60 behind and can easily come over the top on a check raise or they will only have to call less than a 1/3 pot sized bet on the river once we shove it

if theyre calling 30 every time, then theyre calling 50 at least 66% of the time...

If villain is OTB, why do they act first? Are you sure the positions are correct?
