Default Re: QQ flops undercards and get min-checkraised. I hate how I played it

raise the turn. The flop raise almost always means top pair unless the player is tricky. They generally wait till the turn to raise their sets or two pair hands. I think you are way ahead and villain has 5 outs. After the 3 hits on the river, you are ahead of any two pair hand that didn't include a 3.

To sum up, I always assume the flop raise means top pair, unless the player is marked as being good...then It can be two pair or a set. The average donk though, it's top pair, and sometimes not even with a good kicker. I raise my overpair on the turn here almost 100% of the time. I don't go nuts or anything but i'm perfectly happy to get my money in on the turn and expect to be good 70% of the time or so.
