I thought if I called the turn bet, he would get most of his 1.4k stack remaining on the river. I thought about this one a lot. What does he limp with that I am ahead of? He probably is limping AT-AQ, KQ, and QJs, plus a few pairs. What do you think on this one?

its gotta be a call here. Hopefully he makes a smallish bet on the river.

I be the first to admit that sometimes my thinking is a level or two too shallow for my own good.

But I'm in call-call/call-bet mode for turn-river without a doubt.

If he has a queen, why bet the turn?

I can see the feeler bet on the flop to see if you're willing to raise him. But your call sure makes your hand start to look like AK to the average online opponent. With AA or KK they can't wait to get their chips in here so why wouldn't you do the same?

So with the completely non-threatening turn, why not give you a chance to bluff at it or pair up on the river?

May be giving him too much credit, but I'm calling all the way simply because he bet the turn.

Raising seems like a big red flag to me. If I raise, I only see him calling/reraising with a Q.

Nooo. Definitely not advocating raising at any point. Re-read my post. From average Joe's perspective a big pair is putting chips in the middle here.
