Minimum raises and reraises so often scream SET its ridonkulous. If I folded top pair every time I got minraised I'd be up a lot more money. Sure you can "call for pot odds" but there's no cards you can catch to win, and when you call any bet in NL/PL you have to consider what it's going to cost you to play on future streets.

When he shoves the turn you truly can't call. I know YOU have 3 Queens. But the *only* thing you're beating is Q10 and lower, and a bluff.

Opponent actually played the turn pretty well when he figured you for a Queen and shoved knowing he'd get called with the nuts.

Just learn from it and try again next time.

I don't see calling the overbet at that limit to be a profitable play and agree with PurpleLight that a set is highly likely in this situation. Unless you have a good read, an overbet like that usually means you are toast.

dude
you have $2 in that pot
he raised the flop, which means at best he also has a queen, and at worst he has you completely raped
the turn is insta fold. It's an insta fold if he bet $10.

While not likely, Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] x[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] is possible yet it is obviously not something to hope for when the villain pushes that much.
