no way i fold there u played it so slow showin no agression he had to think his top pair of queens were good he could have any q there or 2 pair at best. Maybe the flush rarely but u got redraws if u happen to run into that i think u were ahead

Sah, what Q is he floating the flop for a pot sized bet with?

gibler, no read. Why would he check behind a flush when he needs 2 streets of value to stack me? Also, he would bet a straight and any flush that wasn't the nut flush because of the river diamond possibility.

I'd never fold a set here.
I would not check the turn but shove all-in.
you might be up against the flush but there are so many more possibilities.

I guessed from the title you'd probably have made a mistake; after looking at the hand I'm sure it was awful.

I expected like half the posts to be low content and include no ranges like this one; I guess I'm lucky it's just one.

The turn is a terrible card. However, since your bet on the flop could easily be interpeted as a continuation bet;which followed by the check on the turn could easily induce a bet, especially if your opponent picked up top pair, by any two cards. The strongest hand that I think your opponent could bet this much here is a straight with no daimond. What makes the stituation even worse is that this is a turbo and you dont have alot of time to accumlate chips which makes passing up stituations like these impossible. Really I think you played the had very well till the fold. You should have just shoved over the top; even if he has you beat minus a set of queens you got outs.

You don't need ranges/reads/anything really to tell this is a horrid fold. You should expect half the posts to be low content if you fold sets here

Pot offering t450, you've t1210 behind.

Think your turn check is ok, but you have to shove turn here, because AQ/KQ are possible here. And your pf/flop looks standardish even for stuff that missed, like AK. Once you check turn, he can bet it with AQ/KQ one diamond hands and feel he can take the pot away a decent % of the time.

Shove turn.
