Jeez, that is a weak tight game if I've ever seen one. I would probably raise to something like 30 there, hoping to get a couple callers and then have someone raise me.

the reason i didn't raise wasn't that i feared my hand was no good. i felt sure the small blind had a 6 and i knew he would fire again and then i could raise making it harder for him to get away from his hand and getting some dead money in the pot from the players in between he and i. please all comments are welcome. just trying to improve.

You fear your hand is no good? All that beats you is QQ, Q6, and 66. What are you afraid of? This is a hand that can be slowplayed. Raise the river.

Edit: My fault. I read your post wrong.

i was just wondering if anyone raises on the turn if so how much?

I think you played it just fine. With only a call on the turn, he may sense you are still searching for something or are not sure about your hand. Odds are he bets big or pushes on the river and you got him where you want him. Nice play. Bummer if he shows 66 though huh? [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

I don't see how Q6 can beat 99 here ...

I would minraise the turn since you are last to talk and everyone called the bet. Build the pot ! And raise/push the river.
I Call the turn bet only if I was BB or UTG and want more people to stay in the pot. You fear 2 hands only and I think the SB would raise preflop his QQ to clear the field.

Since QQ is ruled out considering the preflop action, the only hand you're afraid of is 66 which is highly unlikely. The chances are too small to consider. Instead, maximize the earnings! Build a pot too big for the fish to let go of and crush them on the river. Watch out for a Q or a 6 on the river though [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Default Results

of course the river was a Q the SB checked and a middle position player bet forty. i showed the SB my hand as i folded it and he showed me 56o as he mucked. i felt the texture of the game and my image at the table that a small raise would not clear the field because any Q would come anyway and a big raise on the turn would give it away. just a bad river comments?
