I only have 18 hands on the villain, so 29VPIP wont be accurate but they seem loose.
They opens only 2x UTG and im thinking low pocket pair/SC , I have a good hand, I 3bet to 0.14c becuase 0.10 or 0.12 just seemed to small.

They call and we see 444r , Im feeling good, I think if they were trapping with AA/KK they would have raised my 0.14 and i don't think low 3/4 4/5 SC are calling so i put my opponent on Axs 88-QQ ATo+ so i Bet hot half pot for value against these as i think if i bet higher only better hands are calling (Im trying to rep basically his range)

Turn is a 7 which changed nothing except maybe 777, They Donk for 1/3rd Pot which I'm thinking is a pure spew/bluff, if they had the nutz they may just let me bet. So i call hoping they try bluff the river and i can call or raise

Turn is a J which i think could really be their only out when they lead out for a PSB and I was immediately lost.

Im thinking low chance of AA/KK as they would have raised pre. any other pair has a full house but mine is better, JJ has a set but i don't see them limping it pre. So I call thinking i beet any pocket pair they rep and beat any ace high thinking i wouldn't have 3bet to only 0.14 with TT+

Preflop play was fine obviously, 3betting IP with QQ is completely standard.

The flop is pretty good for your hand, AA and KK are still ahead of you but you can get tons of value from lower pocket pairs and even some random ace highs.

When he leads out, I'm actually inclined to raise. He still has plenty of lower pocket pairs than you that might call this raise, and you want to get more money in the pot with what is likely the best hand. If he 3bets the turn you can start considering folding, since only better hands should be reraising you and it's very difficult to bluff that spot.

As played, I think the river is a clear call. He could have you beat, but you're getting 2:1 and I think QQ is good in this spot more than 1/3 of the time. He could be betting AJ for value after bluffing the turn, and in general when you're beating hands in your opponents value range you should call. If he shows down a better hand, take solace in the fact that you were coolered.

If he had a better hand it dosnt really matter. You could have gotten it in at pretty much every street and it would've been fine and you would have been behind every single time.

Thanks for the replies everyone.
First post so wanted it to be a hand i was milling over when I was reviewing my session.

I think i will take the note or raising the turn to the small bet. If he calls that and then pots the river am I still calling though.

There is certainly hands in his range that beat me, i think if it played out that way I would fold TBH.

Am i OK to post the result now?

I'd just be happy that he misplayed KK and we saved money tbh.

KK vs QQ on a board like that should be really getting stacks in. if we had KK
