QQ hand 5-handed

[Go_Blue88]

I think that some of the criticism of this hand is a lil ridiculous, and seemingly "assumed" results-oriented.

You should prolly raise to 8ish p/f but really you should just raise your standard amount every time there's a limper. So if that amount is 6, then fine.

If Villian is aggressive, then the 3 bet preflop is a good idea, but make it bigger if you wanna take away his implied odds.

The Flop: Betting 1/3 of the flop isn't a great idea...in any form of poker (you said you're knew to short-handed, but you shouldn't do this anyways). So, just bet more next time.

The Turn: Your play is good. I like it. You're ahead of pretty much everything in Villian's range--AA,KK,JJ,TJ,88, flush draw.

Your play is pretty good in his hand, just need to pick better betting amounts, which is really easy to fix.
