QQ, too fancy?

Trying to get more value out of heads up situations. Villain had about 1-1.2 AF over about 20 hands so not that significant.

Party Poker (6 max, 6 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is MP with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
4 folds.

Flop: 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 players)
UTG checks.

Turn: Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players)
.

River: 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
.

Final Pot:

The raise on the flop told me he had something (thinking a T. I was intending to raise the turn to clear out any A or K but since I hit my set I wasnt afraid.

Is this good? A 3bet would scare away a T but if I called he may keep betting.

To make converter work correctly, you have to remove the word "Texas" from near the top of the Hand History.

If you think he'll fold to the turn raise, but call a river raise, I guess this works. In my experience a lot of the 1/2 6 max guys pay off turn raises because they always think you're pulling a move on them with unimproved overs.

i'd rather just raise the turn. he could have a draw, or if he has a ten he might check/call the river for 1 less BB for you.

Unless you think he will fold, raise the turn.

I'd like it more if there weren't two hearts on the flop. I definitely raise the turn.

I dont like it. Raise the turn. If hes on a draw hes not going to bet or call a river raise, charge him on the turn.

If hes got a 10 hes not folding it to a turn raise. No need to get fancy.
