QQ OOPs vs. Fish

Villian is very fishy. He is about 60% / 5%
Plays too many hands and doesnt do much of the raising.

Hero ($62.85)
BB ($59.90)
UTG ($35.50)
MP ($18.90)
CO ($63.37)
Button ($57.05)

Preflop: Hero is SB with Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Hero posts a blind of $0.25.
3 folds, Button calls $0.50, Hero (poster) raises to $2.25, 1 fold, Button calls $2.

Flop: ($5.50) 9 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
Hero bets $4, Button raises to $12, Hero calls $8.

I was thinking he would do this with top pair and decent kicker (Q9, K9, A9) as his worst holding and of course would do it with a lot of other better hands. I decided to flat call and c/r blank turn.

Turn: ($29.50) 3 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players) (BLANK!)
Hero checks, Button bets $9, Hero calls $48.35 (All-In)

Discuss.

think you played it great.

well you said villain doesn't do much raising, but he raised you on that flop....so something isn't adding up.

If he's truly fishy I think he's raising the turn with a set, and not the flop as that's a pretty dry flop altho an 8 or 6 falling is a real action killer.

I really can't see him raising with a pair of 9's here, so i'm thinking 2 pair, *maybe* something like TT-AA.

That turn bet he made is weird but fish usually don't push hard so you can still be way behind and have him betting small despite the draws that are out. I don't think said fish calls that turn checkraise with anything you are beating....i'd probably try to see the showdown as cheap as possible instead.

I think I would have played it the same. That being said, it seems like I see a set here many times and get stacked with my overpair.

i play it the same way without a read, but i would like to hear an alternate line to see a cheap showdown while protecting our hand. maybe c/c turn, block river or do we have to c/c river too?
