Default AQ 5/10 6max hand

No read on UTG.

UTG raises to 35, folded to you in the bb with AQ

You call.

Flop is QT2, two [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. You check, he bets 70, and you call.

Turn is the 4o. Pot is 213. You lead for 125. He calls.

Pot is about 470 now. River 9o which is kind of scary bc it could have made the straight.

What's your play.

If you check, how much can you call?

Oh effective stacks 1k

If you check the river it kinda looks like you have missed clubs or a lone Queen that wants it checked down. If he had two pair or something that had you on the flop or turn, I think he would've pushed a bit harder. If I check the end I'd have to suck it up and call up to a pot sized bet on the river. Although I'd prefer leading for 250-300 on the river and look for a call from a worse queen which may check behind.

you know why i said what i did.

I probably check/call 200 or less. Maybe throw out 175 instead and fold if raised. Likely holdings for utg? AA - TT AK - AT? KQs - KJs, KQo?

seems like a good spot for a blocking bet, especially against an unknown. Maybe in the 150-200 range. I'm guessing AZK was villian.

I really don't like a riv. check, but if I did, I think I'd have to call anything less than 300. However, I'd probably just go with my gut if I were in your shoes whether to call or not.

Curious why you were not more aggressive on the flop. This seems like a good time to find out where you stand.

What do you think the odds are that you're ahead here? Even money? I check and call up to a pot-sized bet here because I think that you're ahead on the river enough to make it +EV.

I think I'd rather c/r the flop or lead the turn for more money here hoping to end the hand. Your line has you building a big pot with a one pair hand on a draw-heavy board.

Just my .02.
