Re: Tough spot with QQ on turn...pot too big and I dont know where I a
The problem with the bet is that your laying 1-1 that you wont be raised(since you will have to laydown, unless you plan to draw to a one carded straight that wont be paid off and might get you broke/tied), you may be against a shy AA/KK in which case you dont want to bet since your drawing, you might drawing dead to set or straight, or behind a two pair. Most of the time you are drawing and want the free card, and you get the added benefit of seeing the turn action before you put any money

I think a check is better than a push on this board. All things considered, the only things you're beating are straight draws at this point. You could very likely be against another over pair, trips, or AKs.

Re: Tough spot with QQ on turn...pot too big and I dont know where I am
Without having read any of the other responses, I would think that Likely I am behind at this point, but I might consider a mini bet - w/ the intent to go over the top to SB agression unless BB shows strength. With your read on SB, I am more concerned that BB has Ax(club), likely at least AJ + Flush Draw(if he represents strength), I think it's safe to fold. IMO a push here would only get called if you were beat.

Re: Tough spot with QQ on turn...pot too big and I dont know where I am
The more I think about the absolute last I want is to give a give a free card here. If I'm not already behind, I'm just as likely to hit my card and still not take down the pot. I want some kind of read on the SB vs. BB reaction to a mini-bet.

Re: Tough spot with QQ on turn...pot too big and I dont know where I am
Allrighty then, my apologies for insulting your poker intelligence with my naive question and/or my analysis. I can understand how that line might be considered weak, but you don't have to be a smart-azz about it. If it's below you to address the question, then don't respond at all. I'm not in the mood to be flamed today just for your amusement...

I'll go in to it.
the problem with a mini bet is that if raised, we have no idea whether villain is just picking up on weakness or if villain really has a hand. the miniraise forces us to fold if raised if they are aggressive and if they are passive, they fold hands we beat but calls with hands that beat us. |

Re: Tough spot with QQ on turn...pot too big and I dont know where I a
Thanks, I appreciate the response. I would have to agree w/ you, but I guess what I was thinking back to the times that I have seen someone min bet after 2 check(it would make me think 2x about the possiblity that it was a trap bet) but even then they could just call and I still wouldn't know where I was. Or like you said, all of the sudden the you're making a decision for your entire stack w/o any more info than you started with. Just needed to think it thru better. What would you do?
