PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (9 handed) converter

Button ($53.55)
SB ($73.55)
Hero ($71.10)
UTG ($187.95)
UTG+1 ($79.50)
MP1 ($100)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. MP2 posts a blind of $1. CO posts a blind of $1. MP1 posts a blind of $1.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls $1, MP1 (poster) checks, MP2 (poster) checks, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, CO (poster) checks, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: ($6) 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets $4</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $14</font>, UTG+1 folds, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, CO folds, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises to $72.55</font>, Hero....

I was thinking the massive overbet meants some kind of monster draw like a pair and a flush draw or JT of hearts.

i think here it is a case of knowing your opponent. i doubt he is putting you on a draw as he has seen you raise pretty big, so he could well have set 3s and is trying to get you all in with your Qs. but its too hard to know here, really does depend on how aggressive your opponent is and what his style of play is.

Hmm, thats tough. 33 is the only reasonable hand that is crushing you, but you are only slightly ahead of most of the big draw/pair+draw hands. Would he also play 2-pair this way, you think? If you think he'll only do this with the very best drawing hands (JT[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img],AQ:heart) or a set, then it is pretty close. If he'll do this with a flush+gutshot, or any Qxs then it becomes profitable to call. If he'll do this with 2 pair hands also, it is definitely profitable to call.

Just eyeballing it, I'd say he's got a set 20%, 2 pair 20%, big draw/pair+ draw combo 60%.
