22s, overpair hand

[this guy]

Party 22s, level 1. Villian and I both have ~T800. I have Q-Q in the sb. MP limps, folded to me I raise to 70, BB folds, limper calls, HU. Flop 4-6-9 with two hearts. I bet out 125, villian calls. Turn is a non heart 10. I bet 250, villian calls. River is a black 9. How do I play this?

There is 905 in the pot and you have like 355 left?

I most likely go broke.

the pot had t155 in it after the flop. You bet t125, which is fine.

After the turn, the pot has t400 in it, and you have t605 left. I like to bet t375 there, and push the rest on the river. w/ this 9, he might have trips, but he might have something else. it IS level 1.

btw, hands like this are why i now play t1500 games. More room to mess up/lose hands like this and still come back to win /images/graemlins/smile.gif
