I was hoping villain had something like AJ and would call down with top pair. Is it more likely that he would of raised the flop or turn? I knew I was beat on river but called because of the pot size that was probably a mistake to.

PokerStars - $0.05 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 5 players

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.4 BB) Hero has Q Q

fold, Hero raises to 3 BB, BTN calls 3 BB, fold, fold

You may just check behind here. What kind of hands do you think the villain will have to check - call for 2 streets and check - shove the river? Not flush draw, but only sets here. As you are such an aggressive player, he is just planning to move allin with you, and he manage to do it.

I was first to act so I couldn't check behind. Should I have checked the turn or bet smaller and then check the river and fold to a bet?

Played fine until you called the river. You're never good here. Should probably check/fold there against a tight player as well on the river, since AJ probably doesn't v-bet there at this level.

That makes since. I was playing him like I play against the fishy players. They call me down with much worse. I guess it became a habit. Was my turn bet size fine?

You should have slowed down on the turn since you said hes a tight one. AJ is

not even a usual hand of a tight player.

Turn bet size is just fine.

Why not check call or check fold the river?

I'm not sure. I don't think much I just bet. It's something I'm trying to work on.

This is like always a FH against this villain.

You bomb flop and turn 80 and 90% pot, I doubt hes chasing, looks like a set.

You make it less on the river? You did everything right, just find the fold.
