I'm pretty sure this hand will be easy for you guys, I really just want to know if I should be stacking pre flop or donking the flop

Turn: (99 BB, 2 players) 7:club:

River: (263 BB, 2 players) 3:diamond:



Pre flop I will normally be making this larger due to the fishy player in the BB, but I had stolen the last three pots pre with this raise size so I was hoping that the BB might just ship it over me in frustration.

Now should I be stacking off against this button raise? Villain is 6 tabling. I just feel that these guys are only stacking off with QQ+ and AK and I'm not in great shape against that range. Maybe I can 4-bet fold?

On the flop I check to keep all of villains bluff C-betting range in as this board begs for a C-bet IMO. The problem with flatting is the player behind me and the fact that villain will probably stack off with TT+ here meaning I should just be getting it in. I was thinking at the time that villain might fold TT or JJ to a raise and I fold out all villains bluffs but that probably isn't right now that I look at it after.

I think the turn is a clear call, I am getting odds to call even if villain only bets with 99+ and never bluffs. I just put his bet sizing down to a miss click, I treated it as a shove when I was deciding whether to call or not.

There is nothing wrong with the line you took to play this hand all along. Of course some people would have played it a bit differently by 4betting pre flop but calling there is also just fine. Also you played the hand fine post flop as we are not folding a pair of queens especially when cutoff player gave up on the flop.

So all in all no mistakes whatever the opponent had. ;)

You played the hand fine. You're essentially flipping on the turn.

If you were a little deeper, then I think you should consider 4-betting. You're right at that breaking point and I think just calling pre is fine. Keep his bluffs in since he will have quite a few in this spot.

Nice hand here. As BTN is so aggressive, just flatting QQ OOP is acceptable

Awesome thanks guys, what about trying to stack him on the flop? If villain will stack off with say TT+ on this flop (which is probably likely considering my pre flop flat) then should I just be trying to get it in on the flop instead of allowing a turn card to kill my action?

As the hand played out, you will surely go until showdown no matter what.

If he has the goods, I have to pay him off.
