Sup all if Im holding open Qs, and my opponent is holding open 8s by 5th st, I bet and he raises, since the hand started with an ante steal attempt by me (which isnt advised from people here) I am fairly confident he has 2 small pair. Should I be chasing to the river?

You are beat and beat badly. If oyu call you are chasing from behind. Against almost all opponents you are way behind and would be better off to fold. ON occasion you may come across a tricky opponent that will try to push you off the hand, but that is the exception.

K he was the bringin, and an 8 was his doorcard he raised my open qs on 5th when he caught an 8. He had 2 pair and I was pretty sure of this just my read for some reason. Lets say the cards are all face up and I know he has 2 pair is it correct to chase?

If he has two pair smaller than Queens, you should chase as long as most of your cards are live. His raise should mean at least trips, though.

If as you say you, the cards are turned up, with your Queens and an adequate pot size, it would be correct to chase as you have many outs to two pair.

I think you fold here, because the most likely starting hand for him is split eights.
On the other hand, I don't think a raise always means I can beat queens up here, but it's a while since I played that game. There are plenty of people on party who would raise with eights-up. I know I would if I was villain because I might get you to lay down your queens, if you thought I had trips. Without a good read, and a very laggy opponent, though, this is a fold. |

You have to be SERIOUSLY laggy for an opponent to ignore the possibility of Qs up.
If you don't fall under that category you could make this laydown. |

[/ QUOTE ] When he raises your open Qs he probably isn't saying "I have 8's up" He's probably saying "I have trip 8s" He'd have to think you were VERY VERY likely to have had air to value bet 8's up versus open Qs. |
