------------------------------------------------------------------------

No reads.

I just couldn't see MP3 coldcalling the flop, and then raising the turn with anything I was beating. At BEST I felt I had 3 outs to my Queen for two pair, but I'm pretty sure I was drawing dead.

So, is this a standard laydown?

Raise preflop.

Without reads I'd be hard-pressed to not call down here though.

What? He limped, just like you, which I think is a mistake when you open, even this early. Someone has to raise for someone to coldcall.

You could have more hidden outs than just the 3 queens, unless he has a set or a straight. I think I'd call the turn because of the potential hidden outs, and then call the river because the pot is big now.

He coldcalled the flop, not before the flop.

I think the laydown is fine. The villain called two-cold on a fairly draw heavy board. Then on the turn, he raises the flop raiser on a card that just completed a few different straight draws. Given that you have no reads, it might be worth a call down, but in my experience, you don't run into many players who will try and make a move on you at these limits.

i'm not folding this turn. you're not drawing dead as much as you'd think.
